תיאור

The goal of the Melanoma Research Program (MRP) is to prevent melanoma initiation and progression. 

Team Science Award (TSA) supports hypothesis-driven studies across the entire spectrum of research to tackle the overarching program goals. Multidisciplinary teams of 2-3 PI's working on a single project are required. At least one military or VA investigator is encouraged to be included as an equal partner in the research.

 
 
  FY22 MRP Team Science Award must address at least one of the following Focus Areas.
  • Research across the entire spectrum (biology, etiology, prevention, diagnosis and detection, prognosis, treatment, and quality of life) for rare melanomas (e.g., uveal, acral, mucosal, pediatric) in patients and model organisms.
  • Identify and understand risk factor determinants for melanoma, including rare subtypes.
  • Develop prediction and surveillance tools for distinguishing patient populations at risk for second primary/recurrence and/or metastasis.
  • Understand how precursor lesions and environmental/endogenous factors influence melanomagenesis, including (but not limited to) race, sex as a biological variable, etc.
  • Develop new tools for the detection and diagnosis of melanoma, which includes easily accessible technology (beyond the dermoscope) for primary care physicians and dermatologists.
  • Identify how the tumor microenvironment (e.g., stromal, immune, microbiome) impacts tumor initiation, response to therapy, progression, recurrence, and/or dormancy.
  • Delineate the molecular pathways that influence metastatic spread, recurrence, and/or dormancy.
