NIH: Mechanisms of Alcohol-Associated Cancers
This grant supports mechanistic research on how alcohol consumption contributes to cancer initiation, progression, and outcomes. It encourages studies that elucidate biological pathways linking alcohol use to carcinogenesis in both normal and transformed cells. Projects may focus on immunological, metabolic, genetic, or epigenetic mechanisms across various cancer types, with an emphasis on alcohol’s dose, pattern, and exposure duration. Clinical trials are not allowed.
