Pershing Square Sohn Cancer Research Alliance Opens Applications for its 2017 Prize
The Pershing Square Sohn Cancer Research Alliance (PSSCRA) will open applications for its 2017 Prize on October 3rd, 2016.
At least five New York based scientists will each be awarded $200,000/year – for up to three years – to enable them to pursue groundbreaking research at a stage when traditional funding is lacking.
As part of the program created around the Prize, winners will be introduced to a mentor in the pharmaceutical industry and will present their work to scientific and business audiences.
Applicants must have between 2 to 8 years of experience running their own laboratories and must have a PhD, MD or MD-PhD (or equivalent). The deadline to submit the Letter of Intent is November 7, 2016.
