PCR Grant Call Announcements
Prostate Cancer Research (PCR) is inviting applications for its Early Career Fellowship in Prostate Cancer Research, designed to support outstanding researchers as they transition towards research independence. The fellowship aims to enable talented researchers to establish their own scientific identity, generate preliminary data, develop leadership skills and build the foundations for future funding success.

Previous Funding Opportunities
We expect to run these grant calls again in the future.
Racial Disparities Grant Call 2024
This call was part of our wider commitment to address the key challenges contributing to the health inequalities experienced by the Black community.
We welcomed proposals from UK- and US-based lead host institutions that had the intention and potential to make a meaningful difference towards levelling the playing field for Black men. Proposals from the fields of biomedical and social sciences were encouraged.
Bone Metastasis Collaboration Fund 2024
In 2024, we joined forces with the charity Breast Cancer Now to launch our Bone Metastasis Collaboration Fund. By bringing together experts and taking a collaborative and multi-tumour approach, this exciting new alliance aimed to revolutionise the prevention, diagnosis, treatment, and care of bone metastasis in breast and prostate cancer.
We invited proposals from UK-based principal investigators focused on bone metastasis research, including studies of fundamental, cancer-agnostic mechanisms as well as work on prevention, diagnosis, treatment, and care. Proposals could relate to breast cancer, prostate cancer, or both, with particular interest in projects addressing both cancers, combining models across the two, or fostering new collaborations between breast and prostate cancer research teams.
Open Research Grant Call 2023
In addition to our more specific calls, we also run open grant calls to support a wider range of research projects.
We encouraged proposals for early-stage, collaborative research with the potential to lead to larger future awards, with strong interest in applications from early career scientists. Priority areas included research to improve quality of life for people affected by prostate cancer and studies addressing critical knowledge gaps, such as co-morbidities, ARVs, or bone metastasis, with clear justification of their significance.
However, we also considered any medical or social science research avenue relevant to men affected by advanced prostate cancer.
