The California Breast Cancer Research Program (CBCRP) Predoctoral Fellowships aim to support doctoral students enrolled at California institutions who are conducting research focused on breast cancer under the mentorship of established investigators. These fellowships are designed to strengthen the pipeline of future breast cancer researchers, particularly in areas affected by gaps in federal funding, and to promote research aligned with CBCRP’s Reducing the Burden of Breast Cancer Initiatives. Emphasis is placed on projects addressing environmental contributors, health disparities, and population-level prevention of breast cancer.
