The pancreatic cancer research community has historically been small, fragmented, and poorly funded. The Pancreatic Cancer Action Network believes that a comprehensive strategy is needed to achieve a comprehensive cure. Through our research grants program, we attract brilliant early career scientists and investigators with innovative ideas to study pancreatic cancer. By recruiting the brightest scientists with the most novel ideas, we continue to build a broad research community, poised to make significant scientific discoveries.

The Pancreatic Cancer Action Network grants are administered in partnership with the American Association for Cancer Research (AACR) to ensure rigorous peer-review of grant applications, so that only the most promising science is selected for funding.
