How a Sky seed grant works
Scientists and clinicians coast-to-coast submit proposals in early detection, prevention, and treatment.
Our nationally-known Scientific Advisory Committee selects the most promising work and presents these to the Governing Board.
Start-up grants fill the critical gap that lets bold ideas mature into fundable projects.
Sky-funded researchers often go on to secure millions in additional funding, establish labs, build collaborations, and drive breakthroughs.
Where the work happens
Tools and biomarkers to catch pancreatic cancer while it is still treatable.
Genetic risk, family history, and proactive screening for high-risk individuals.
New drugs and approaches to halt and shrink pancreatic tumors.
