About Cancer Research Grants for HBCU
The National Institutes of Health funds breakthrough cancer research at historically Black colleges and universities, supporting everything from laboratory discovery to clinical trials. This collection includes 6,404 active grants specifically targeting HBCUs engaged in cancer research, offering institutions meaningful opportunities to advance both science and workforce capacity.
Most awards in this category range from $50,000 to $375,000 and operate on a competitive basis, with many supporting multi-year projects. Less than 3% require cost-sharing, making these grants accessible for institutions with limited matching funds. Filtering by support type—particularly "Research" grants—can help identify funding aligned with your institution's priorities and infrastructure capacity.
