As part of its annual competition, the CRS receives hundreds of applications from researchers and clinicians throughout Canada who are seeking a $120,000 2-year grant for a cancer research project. The financial support is awarded to projects retained through a rigorous selection process conducted via peer-evaluation committees, which this year were composed of 85 researchers and clinicians who generously volunteered their time.听听听
