NCI's Recovery Act Web Site Features New Content
NCI recently added a wealth of new content to its Recovery Act Web site, including reports on NCI’s investment of ARRA funds, and feature stories about institutions that have benefited from funding.
The Web site showcases the many research and community programs being funded, the people behind these initiatives, and the innovations shaping the future of cancer care. Among the highlights are:
Impact on Communities: Testimonials from grantees and articles on select projects that examine the research being funded and how these programs are benefiting their local communities, as well as the cancer community at large
News: Up-to-date features on Recovery Act funding at NCI, as well as headlines from news outlets around the country
Investment Reports: Specialized “investment reports” that outline specific areas in which NCI Recovery Act grants have been awarded, such as efforts to reduce health disparities and grants awarded by cancer type, such as breast, childhood, lung, and pancreatic cancers
Search Tools: Interactive tools to help find grants by keyword, state, Congressional district, or type of award
