What the grant funds

The FY23 PCRP Health Disparity Research Award supports promising research ideas that have high potential to make a significant impact in eliminating disparities in prostate cancer incidence, morbidity, mortality, and survivorship. Applications for this award are encouraged to be relevant to one or more of the FY23 PCRP Health Disparity Research Award Focus Areas and must explicitly state how the proposed research is related to the selected Focus Areas(s). If the proposed project does not address one of the FY23 PCRP Health Disparity Research Award Focus Areas, the application must provide a description to justify how the project will nevertheless address another critical area believed to contribute to prostate cancer health disparities within the context of the FY23 PCRP Overarching Challenges. Applications are encouraged from a spectrum of disciplines, including but not limited to, basic science, engineering, bioinformatics, population science, psycho-oncology, translational research, implementation science, and health care services. Community Engagement: Investigators are highly encouraged to engage members of the targeted population or community in the development and implementation of their research project, where appropriate. A comprehensive, but by no means exhaustive, list of health disparity research resources and community or advocacy organizations is provided at the end of the Health Disparity Research Award Information section. Applications that involve and utilize population- or community-based organizations to support their research project should demonstrate the level of involvement in letters of support for the application. Impact: Research supported by the FY23 PCRP Health Disparity Research Award is expected to have the potential to make a significant impact in addressing prostate cancer health disparities within the context of the FY23 PCRP Overarching Challenges. Research with a high degree of innovation is anticipated to have a higher potential for significant impact. The impact of the proposed research may include an improved understanding of factors contributing to health disparities or provide advancements that will reduce disparities in prostate cancer incidence, morbidity, mortality, and/or survivorship.
