Cancer Australia’s Priority-driven Collaborative Cancer Research Scheme (PdCCRS) is an innovative, competitive, annual cancer research projects grant funding scheme. The PdCCRS is conducted by Cancer Australia in partnership with other funders of cancer research.
Cancer Australia and its funding partners value the involvement of people affected by cancer in all aspects of the PdCCRS including the review of research grant applications.
This is an open, national call for Expression-of-Interest from consumers interested in being part of Grant Review Committees for the PdCCRS.
Experience in the review of research grants is desirable; however, these skills are not essential because Cancer Australia will provide the appropriate training. Training will be undertaken over 2 days in Cancer Australia’s Sydney and Melbourne offices in August/September 2022.
Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders, individuals from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds and male consumers are encouraged to apply.
The Expression-of-Interest form and background information is available on the Cancer Australia website at:
