The NCI is pleased to announce the Notice of Special Interest (NOSI): Administrative Supplement Opportunity to Study the Impact of COVID-19 on Global Cancer Prevention and Control (NOT-CA-21-033).

The purpose of this NOSI is to inform current awardees that the National Cancer Institute (NCI) is providing the opportunity for supplemental funding to stimulate interest and promote studies on the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on global cancer prevention and control. This Administrative Supplement is designed to support NCI-funded investigators who have existing relationships/partnerships in low- and middle-income countries to leverage those partnerships to conduct research on the pandemic’s impact on cancer prevention, diagnosis, treatment, and outcomes. 

CGH will be hosting a webinar to address frequently asked questions about this funding opportunity on Thursday, February 25, 2021 at 9:00 a.m. EST.  Click here to join the webinar, or copy and paste the following link into your browser https://nih.zoomgov.com/j/1615455986?pwd=S2NlclFKNXlLWGs0bHV1aDlDa1BQZz09.
