NFCR has built science programs that now involve nearly 50 top research laboratories in the U.S. and other countries around the world. NFCR-funded scientists are conducting cutting-edge research around the clock on all major types of cancer and leading the way in many critical research areas. To maximize the value of our resources and to work more efficiently, NFCR organizes its Science Programs using three different funding structures: NFCR Research Discovery Centers NFCR Project Directors NFCR Fellows This structure engages top research minds from a wide range of scientific disciplines and creates a broad network within which all NFCR-supported scientists and research laboratories are interconnected, actively sharing ideas and information across research institutions. This constitutes a unique "Laboratory Without Walls" - a true research collaborative that will expedite the pace of reaching our ultimate goal - finding cures for all types of cancer. The Szent-Gyorgyi Prize In addition, NFCR funds The Szent-Gyorgyi Prize for Progress in Cancer Research, an award recognizing an an outstanding researcher whose scientific achievement has made extraordinary contributions in the field of cancer research.
