Description
Binaytara Research Awards provide competitive grant funding for early-career hematology/oncology faculty and fellows pursuing innovative cancer research. Awards range from $25,000 to $50,000 and are tied to specific Binaytara CME conferences.

Finalists are selected through the Impact Pitch: Research Award Challenge, a live competition at the corresponding Binaytara conference where expert reviewers (Catalysts) evaluate each proposal and determine funding.
