The TRANSCAN project has pre-announced its JTC2026, focusing on ‘Translational Research on Cancer Metabolism: Multidisciplinary Approaches for Diagnosis and Treatment’. The call will launch on 20 May 2026. Pre-proposals must be submitted by 21 July 2026.
The overarching objective of this funding opportunity is to foster new collaborations between researchers and clinicians and to support original, high-quality projects with strong translational potential. Funded projects are expected to significantly advance the understanding and exploitation of cancer metabolism in clinically relevant settings.
The anticipated outcome of the call is the development of innovative, personalised approaches for cancer diagnosis, patient stratification, and treatment, grounded in a deeper mechanistic understanding of metabolic alterations in cancer.
