About this opportunity

The FY23 PCRP Data Science Award mechanism supports research where quantitative and analytical approaches, processes, and/or systems are developed and/or used to obtain knowledge and insight from large and/or complex sets of prostate cancer data. If successful, the studies will enable progress toward addressing one or more of the FY23 PCRP Overarching Challenges. It is expected that any tools or datasets generated by this award will be made available for public use. This mechanism is intended to fund research built upon the methods of one or more of the following research areas as they pertain to prostate cancer:• Computational biology• Bioinformatics• Artificial intelligence and machine learning• Epidemiology• Analysis of –omics data• Medical imaging• Digital pathology• Analysis of other clinically annotated datasetsApplications may combine diverse data types for integrative analysis to increase knowledge about prostate cancer with respect to the FY23 PCRP Overarching Challenges. Applications that propose to develop resources or tools that allow research, clinical care, and patient community access to standardized and harmonized datasets for real-time clinical care applications are of particular interest; however, this award must not be used to support the development of new datasets. Studies utilizing data derived from large patient studies that include long-term health records or repositories with well-annotated and high-quality biospecimens are encouraged.Key Features:• Research Approach: Applications may propose development of a new data-science-driven tool or apply an existing tool or method to gather and analyze information from large datasets with the intent of advancing prostate cancer research and patient care relative to the FY23 PCRP Overarching Challenges. Inclusion of preliminary data to support the scientific rationale and feasibility of research approaches is strongly encouraged, but not required. Any preliminary data provided should be from the laboratory of the PI(s) or member(s) of the collaborating team. Applicants are encouraged to consider including plans for rigorous , and/or evaluations to assess the quality or utility of the tools and/or approaches that will be used or developed under this award. Any datasets used in the study design must be from established, retrospective databases and be sufficient in size to provide appropriate analytical and statistical power. Prospective recruitment of human subjects and/or clinical trials is not allowed under this funding opportunity.Applicants are expected to provide documentation demonstrating access to the appropriate datasets and/or patient samples in numbers sufficient to achieve robust results.• Impact: Applications are required to clearly communicate how the proposed quantitative and/or analytical approaches, processes, and/or systems will address and provide a solution to one or more of the FY23 PCRP Overarching Challenges. The potential impact of the research, both short- and long-term, should be clearly described, including how the anticipated outcomes or products are distinct from existing research efforts in this area and/or how they will significantly outperform current approaches in this area. High-impact research will, if successful, significantly advance prostate cancer research and/or patient care.• Data and Resource Sharing Plan: It is expected that any computational processes that are developed under this award will be openly shared with the prostate cancer research and patient community. Plans must be provided for how additional data generated by future studies will be incorporated to further inform and refine the data science tools, processes, and/or methods generated and/or used in this study.
