  • Applicants must hold an appointment as Assistant Professor or equivalent, and their Cancer Research article must be published within 12 years of receiving their PhD/MD
  • Applicants for last year’s award may re-apply, provided they still meet the above criteria

Award Nominations:

Nominations by a mentor, senior investigator, or institutional official (for example, department chair, dean, provost or president) will be accepted until January 8, 2021. To nominate an individual for an Early Investigator Award, please submit the following to cancerres@aacr.org:
