Applicants need to demonstrate meaningful engagement of people affected by or at risk of cancer throughout the research process (i.e., in the development, implementation, and/or dissemination of research findings) as well as anticipated contributions towards achieving potential future impacts. Applications from the four pillars of health research (i.e., biomedical; clinical; health services; and social, cultural, environmental and population health) are welcome.
