Open Calls

The Irish Cancer Society is the largest voluntary funder of cancer research in Ireland and we are committed to improving the lives of cancer patients in Ireland through research.

Researchers

At the Irish Cancer Society, we are committed to making sure less people get cancer and more people survive their diagnoses. We do this by funding world-class cancer research in Ireland and by being the country’s largest charitable funder of cancer research. 

From early-career researchers, patient partners to established clinicians and academics we fund different types of researchers and people. We seek projects that are either translational, clinical research or survivorship-based and always centred around those affected by cancer. Our calls open at different times of the year and they are not rolling calls – please refer to each call for their specific timelines.
