Special Research Initiatives
The CBCRP announces funding opportunities through our Special Research Initiatives (SRI). Investigators will be supported to pursue research strategies that increase knowledge about and create solutions to both the environmental causes of breast cancer and the unequal burden of the disease. Seven new initiatives are scheduled for funding.
