Description:
The NCI invites applications for new R01, R21, and R03 grants which are
focused on research leading to the elucidation of mechanism(s) by which
dietary factors influence epigenetic processes as well as increasing the
understanding of these processes in cancer prevention. The objective is to
encourage collaboration between nutrition and epigenetic experts to study
bioactive food components with cancer preventative properties, and to examine
key epigenetic events in cancer processes (i.e., carcinogen metabolism, cell
division, differentiation, apoptosis) so that investigators can begin to
establish linkages between epigenetics, methylation pattern, and tumor
incidence/behavior. It is anticipated that the information gained will
provide guidance for the development of dietary intervention strategies for
cancer prevention.
