With help from the Movember Foundation, we have committed to
invest £7 million in research every year for the next three
years.
In our new research strategy there are three
priority areas. Proposals from researchers must target at least one
of these to be considered for funding:
- Identifying men at highest risk of developing clinically
significant prostate cancer
- Distinguishing aggressive prostate cancer from indolent
disease
- Finding new, targeted treatments for advanced prostate
cancer
Pilot awards, Project grants and Clinical research grants
We welcome applications from established researchers within the
UK - who have a strong track record in their field - to undertake
innovative science which addresses (at least) one of our three
research priority areas. More information about each of these
funding opportunities will follow shortly.
In the 2013 Project grants and Pilot award call for
applications, we particularly welcome proposals looking at
distinguishing aggressive prostate cancer from indolent
disease.

Movember Centre of Excellence
The Movember Centre of Excellence will act as a
multi-disciplinary hub for UK prostate cancer research,
collaborating with national and international research networks to
accelerate the use of new discoveries across the UK. Call for
expressions of interest opens 31st October 2012.
