Joan Brugge leads one of the three research teams led by HMS faculty that have been awarded grants by the Gray Foundation to study new approaches for prevention, early detection, and interception of BRCA-related cancers. Sixteen research teams will be awarded a total of $35 million in funding over three years as part of the Gray Foundation’s Team Science program.
“The teams selected by the Foundation are taking innovative, multidisciplinary approaches to the toughest questions in the field,” said Chi Van Dang, chief science advisor for the Gray Foundation.
“The selected research proposals will have a meaningful impact in the prevention, interception, and early detection of BRCA-associated cancers,” Dang added.
