The Winthrop P. Rockefeller Cancer Institute Shared Resource Voucher Program provides Cancer Institute members paid access to shared resources supported by the Cancer Institute. Available resources include the Experimental Pathology Shared Resource, Genomics Shared Resource, Proteomics Shared Resource, and Bioinformatics Shared Resource. This voucher program is intended to accelerate the collection of data for NCIgrant submissions and cancer-relevant publications.
Cancer Institute members may submit an application requesting up to $5,000 to access fee-for-service shared resources. Interested applicants can submit an application. Applicants will need to prepare a 1-page application including the following subsections: Project Summary, Resource Utilization, and Plan for ExtramuralFunding and Publication. An official quote must be obtained from the Shared Resource director and uploaded with the application. Applicants using the Proteomics or Genomics Cores are encouraged to consult with the Bioinformatics Core. Applicants who are affiliate members should submit a letter of support from their primary mentor.
Cancer Institute members may only have one active voucher award at a time. Awarded vouchers must be fully utilized prior to new voucher awards being made.
Due dates
Applications are accepted on a continuous basis, provided the Cancer Institute member has samples ready for analysis. Any voucher application without samples in hand will be rejected until samples are collected.
