Description
The California Breast Cancer Research Program (CBCRP) Policy Initiative supports research that bridges the gap between evidence and public or private policy. Administered through the University of California Research Grants Program Office, this rapid-response mechanism addresses research questions that can quickly inform breast cancer-relevant policy and help create an environment in California that leads to less breast cancer.
The 2026–2027 Cycle 33 opportunity is listed as the Menopause, Treatment Guidelines, and Breast Cancer Policy Initiative. Proposed research must explain its connection to one or more CBCRP priority issues. Across its funding program, CBCRP prioritizes improved health outcomes, the needs of populations historically underserved or underrepresented in breast cancer research, and questions that specifically affect Californians or leverage California-specific resources.
