Objectiu de la convocatòria
This call aims to fund translational cancer research projects carried out at institutions in Spain, with the ultimate goal of improving outcomes for cancer patients. CRIS Programmes support individual projects across any area of cancer research, including (but not limited to) tumour biology, cancer immunology, precision oncology, early diagnosis, resistance mechanisms, or innovative therapeutic strategies.
CRIS focuses on research with clear translational potential and clinical relevance. Even when addressing fundamental research questions, projects are framed around clinical applicability and meaningful impact for patients, in line with CRIS strategic priorities.
