AACR-QuadW Foundation Sarcoma Research Fellowship in Memory of Willie Tichenor

The AACR-QuadW Foundation Sarcoma Research Fellowship is a one-year funded fellowship supporting a postdoctoral or clinical research fellow conducting translational or clinical sarcoma research. The fellowship provides a one-year grant of $60,000 to support the salary and benefits of the fellow and may also fund non-personnel research expenses directly related to the project. Projects must be translational or clinical in nature with direct applicability to sarcoma and should aim to develop personalized therapeutic options or predictive biomarker studies. Fellows work under the mentorship of an investigator at an academic, medical, or research institution.

One-year $60,000 grant for salary and benefits; allowable research/laboratory supplies, equipment, publication charges and other research expenses related to the funded project.

Applicants must hold a doctoral degree (PhD, MD, MD/PhD, or equivalent) and hold a mentored research position with the title of postdoctoral fellow, clinical research fellow, or equivalent at the start of the grant term (July 1, 2027). Applicants must have completed their most recent doctoral degree or medical residency within the past five years and be able to dedicate at least 50% effort to the proposed research.
