Introduction

The Irish Cancer Society Cancer Research Networking Awards offers cancer researchers the opportunity to establish and strengthen collaborations and relationships with national and international cancer researchers. This programme will give researchers at any stage of their career the opportunity to learn about up-to-date cancer research, network and collaborate, and to gain experience in research dissemination.

The aim of this award is to contribute towards the cost of networking initiatives, training activities, or the development of collaborations or partnerships (attend or host a workshop, conference, training or any other networking activity) which will help stimulate, develop, and build capacity in the cancer research community. These awards are intended to support motivated individuals who would not otherwise be able to undertake these activities.

As a guide, some eligible networking initiatives include:

  • Attendance at a cancer specific international or national conference or workshop
  • Attendance at a cancer specific summer school or winter school (or similar)
  • Organise and host a small-scale conference or workshop in translational cancer research
  • Host a meeting with international researchers with the aim of establishing new research collaborations in a translational cancer research topic

Please note, this is not an exhaustive list, The Society is open to all networking initiatives that satisfy the purpose and objectives of the call. If you are unsure if your initiative is eligible please contact grants@irishcancer.ie.

There are two funding strands available: one for researchers from a translational cancer research background and one for researchers from a social, nursing, and allied health sciences background. Please ensure you apply for the correct strand.
