Translational Seed Funding Grant Recipients
The project should represent a novel genuine collaboration between two scientists: one from the field of basic cancer research and the other from the field of clinical cancer research. The two scientists should in a joint and collaborative format attack an important problem in translational cancer research, where the unique and complementary expertise from the two applicants is required to solve the research question.
2021
In 2021 the grant is awarded for two years, amounts to SEK 750 000 + 25 % INDI per year.
