CHALLENGE AWARDS—CLASS OF 2011
PCF vetted the 10 2011 Challenge Awards from a field of 59 research proposals from highly-qualified research teams at prestigious cancer centers around the globe. Following an extensive peer review, consisting of an external advisory board, PCF selected the top research proposals for funding. These projects represent a range of focus and expertise and will address the most challenging problems in basic or translational research in prostate cancer. The 10 Challenge Awards include two Judge A. David Mazzone-PCF Challenge Awards.
