Apply for a Grant
The Art beCAUSE Breast Cancer Foundation has developed a “Seed a Scientist” program to supply seed money to support research by those investigating environmental etiologies of breast cancer. A two year award of up to $60,000 (including up to 10% indirect costs) will be made at $30,000 per year. Applicants should be accomplished in research relating to breast cancer and the environment or show significant potential to develop into an outstanding scientist in this area. Awardees will agree to attend the Foundation’s annual fund-raising dinner in Boston, Massachusetts on October 18, 2012 to accept the award and to speak briefly about how the award will help them in their research. Awardees may be asked to provide an informal update on progress after 6 months for the Art beCAUSE web site. Applications are reviewed by a panel of scientists, physicians, and breast cancer research advocates with significant expertise in laboratory- and community-based studies.
