Preventing Breast Cancer the Focus of 2009-2010 Susan G. Komen for the Cure Promise Grants

Research designed to prevent breast cancer from recurring will not be considered for the 2009-2010 Promise Grants, but these grants may be used to support drug formulation, dietary and/or behavioral formulas, or previously untested novel methods.

Komen for the Cure will be accepting applications from U.S. and international researchers but they must work for nonprofit institutions or organizations. The grant allows for the involvement of industry partners, however they can not be reimbursed for any fee or profit.
