Today #LCSM received the following information about a lung cancer grant opportunity from The CHEST Foundation (the philanthropic arm of the American College of Chest Physicians).  We’re sharing it here to encourage more participation in lung cancer research.

—————————

The CHEST Foundation has been supporting lung cancer research since 2002, and this award, established in 2011, funds much needed research that leads to improved treatment and/or a cure for lung cancer. The grant recipient will receive $100,000 in payments of $50,000 each year for 2 years. Eligibility criteria and the application are available online.

For patients and families, our foundation has free lung cancer patient education information available.
