The National Institutes of Health (NIH), a part of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, is the nation’s medical research agency — making important discoveries that improve health and save lives.
This funding opportunity seeks applications for mechanistic studies on the relationship between diet, lipid metabolism, and cancer progression. It aims to support fundamental research identifying the molecular mechanisms by which lipid metabolism influences tumor growth. Focused on bridging nutrition and molecular metabolism, the program encourages research and tool development in lipid biochemistry. Budgets should not exceed $500,000 per year, with a maximum project period of five years.
