Objectiu de la convocatòria
The aim of the WCRF Regular Grant Programme is to support innovative and original research into the role of diet, nutrition and physical activity in either Cancer Prevention or Cancer Survivorship.
Característiques principals
An application to WCRF International must fall into one or more of the research themes listed here:
  • Identifying the mechanisms that underpin the effects of diet, nutrition and physical activity on cancer
  • Addressing the host factors that influence an individual’s susceptibility to cancer development or progression
  • For cancer survivors, we also encourage broader research into evidence for impact of diet, nutrition (including body composition), physical activity and outcomes after cancer diagnosis, as robust evidence on this is still lacking.
    Types of grants:
  • Investigator Initiated Grants (IIGs)
  • Pilot and Feasibility Grants (PFGs)
