Cancer Prevention Fellowship Program (CPFP)

National Institutes of Health

Preventing cancer is one of the most important scientific and public health aims for the 21st Century. To achieve that goal, the Nation needs leaders: scientists and health professionals trained in the principles and practice of cancer prevention and control.

Founded in 1987, the NCI Cancer Prevention Fellowship Program (CPFP) provides its fellows an opportunity to develop an independent research program in cancer prevention. The centerpiece of the program is mentored, multidisciplinary research. With input from senior scientists and program staff, each fellow develops original scientific projects and reports findings at meetings and in leading journals.

The program provides:

Competitive stipends, relocation expenses, health insurance benefits, and travel allowances
Support for up to four years
Opportunity to earn your MPH, sponsored by NCI
Research opportunities with experienced NCI mentors
A cohort of fellows spanning STEM and other fields

Deadline: August 6, 2026
