The Metastasis Research Network (MetNet): MetNet Research Projects
Funds a research project that plugs into NCI's Metastasis Research Network of systems-level cancer centers, up to $500,000.
Metastasis rarely has one cause worth studying in isolation — it moves through the whole body, across many biological systems at once. NCI already funds a network of centers built to study it that way, and this notice funds new projects that join the network rather than stand alone.
The Metastasis Research Network, MetNet, is a collection of U54 Research Centers using systems-level approaches to …
U01 research projects using systems-level approaches to metastasis, designed as discrete entities that integrate into and complement NCI's Metastasis Research Network — a collection of U54 Research Centers studying metastasis as a whole-body, systems-level problem — up to a ceiling of $500,000.
