  • Identification and characterization of new biomarkers for NSCLC and SCLC
  • Liquid biopsy assays and related techniques
  • Improvements in risk stratifying patients for screening
  • Development of predictive, diagnostic, or prognostic biomarkers
  • Genomic and histological approaches to improve early detection in tissue samples
  • Novel imaging modalities to identify and risk stratify pre-neoplastic lesions
  • Studies of pre-neoplasia and progression to lung neoplasia that may inform prevention strategies
  • Development of pathways to increase uptake and utilization of lung cancer screening
