Applications for the Specialized Programs of Research Excellence (SPORE) in Leukemia Career Enhancement and Developmental Research Awards are being accepted through May 2.

The Career Enhancement Award is aimed at junior faculty (instructors or assistant professors) without an R01 or equivalent grant, or senior postdoctoral fellows (PhD, MD or MD-PhD) who have written commitments from their department heads indicating promotion to instructor or assistant professor by the time of the award.

The Developmental Research Award is aimed at all faculty members (instructor level or higher). In addition, senior postdoctoral fellows who have written commitments from their department heads indicating promotion to instructor or assistant professor by the time of the award will be eligible. Preference will be given to junior faculty or established investigators with a new translational leukemia research focus.
