A limited number of Travel Awards to senior level PhD or MD/PhD students are available. The purpose of this program is to defray the travel costs associated with making a scientific presentation at a conference, symposium or other appropriate professional gathering.

The Canadian Cancer Society Prevention Initiative – Junior Investigator Awards in Prevention Research are career development awards and are intended for candidates who are in the early stages of their independent research career.
Applications are invited from candidates:
• Already working in the field of cancer prevention, or
• Working in other disciplines who would like to transition into cancer prevention research, and/or increase the focus of cancer prevention in their current research program

The purpose of the Canadian Cancer Society Prevention Initiative – Prevention Translation Supplement Awards competition is to stimulate the translation of existing cancer research findings into cancer prevention by supporting pilot studies of interventions. Applications are invited from current CCSRI grant holders across all disciplines to submit pilot studies that will translate their research findings into identifying effective interventions that reduce the cancer incidence in the human population. Interventions to prevent cancer are defined as research to modify determinants of, and/or changes to, behaviours or exposures that affect cancer risk.
