Grants & Funding / Funded Research The Dr. Susan Love Research Foundation gives out pilot grants to jumpstart innovative research and to encourage scientists to pursue the intraductal approach. Grants are made through a novel approach, with applicants presenting their proposals at the Foundation's biennial International Symposium on the Intraductal Approach to Breast Cancer.
A multidisciplinary Peer Review Committee composed of basic scientists, breast cancer activists, and surgeons listens to the presentations at the Symposium, reviews the grant proposals, and decides who will receive the pilot grant awards and the amount of each award. Decisions are based on the scientific merit and relevance to the Foundation's mission and goals—exploiting intraductal access to better understand, prevent, and treat breast cancer.
The Intraductal Approach
Intraductal approaches encompass procedures and technologies that are designed to access and interrogate the ductal-alveolar systems of the human breast, and include nipple aspiration, ductal lavage, and ductoscopy. MORE >
Pilot Grant Application
Our Foundation provides grants to researchers who are utilizing the intraductal approach. These pilot grants are designed to help experienced researchers pursue and explore innovative, outside-the-box ideas and to encourage more scientists to enter this promising field. MORE >
