Dear Leaders of Childhood Cancer Cooperative Groups and Disease-specific research groups,

SIOP PARC Program leaders Carl Allen and Girish Chinnaswamy will host a Q&A session for the PARC Program RFP 2 on Sept 23, 2024, at 8.30am (Texas time). They will be happy to answer any questions that you may have for the RFP.

If you plan to submit a proposal to this RFP, feel free to join this optional meeting and ask your questions.

Please review in detail the RFP and Templates prior to the meeting:

• RFP
• Proposal Template
• Budget Template
• Submission portal

During the application submission process, you will be asked for information on whether 75% of the centers in your cooperative group/research group have registered in the SIOP Global Mapping Program. For this requirement, please be ready to upload a list of the centers in your group and a focal point per center, and SIOP will automatically check how many of them are registered in the SIOP Global Mapping Program. If you have not yet met the 75% requirement, SIOP will provide guidance to you on how to register the remaining centers. It takes 10 min per center to register (the registration process is essentially a response to 10 questions through SurveyMonkey).

If you would like to attend, please contact aatanasova@siop-online.org for the meeting link.

Warm regards,

SIOP Secretariat
