DoW Prostate Cancer, Data Science Award

The FY26 Prostate Cancer Research Program (PCRP) Data Science Award supports innovative research that leverages quantitative and analytical methods to extract insights from complex prostate cancer datasets. Research areas eligible for this award include clinically annotated data analysis, -omics, artificial intelligence and machine learning, bioinformatics, computational biology, digital pathology, epidemiology, and medical imaging. All proposed projects must address one of the FY26 PCRP Overarching Challenges, ensuring that funded research aligns with key strategic priorities in prostate cancer investigation. This funding opportunity uniquely permits multiple Principal Investigators (PIs) to collaborate on a single project. While the initiating PI is responsible for submitting the pre-application, each partnering PI must submit a full application focusing on their distinct segment of the research. It's important to note that if any one application—either initiating or partnering—is rejected or administratively withdrawn, all related applications for that research initiative may also be withdrawn. The Department of the Army, through the Department of Defense, manages this award, and applicants can contact the provided helpdesk for support or visit the grants.gov link for more information.
