American-Italian Cancer Foundation
The American-Italian Cancer Foundation (AICF) is a US-based nonprofit organization that funds post-doctoral research fellowships for outstanding young Italian scientists who perform groundbreaking research in the fields of cancer biology and treatment in competitive labs across the United States.
Post-doctoral research fellowships are a critical component in advancing cancer research, as they reach young scientists with innovative project ideas at a time in their careers when funding from other sources is less certain. AICF’s Program focuses on providing opportunities for Italian researchers to train and conduct research in the United States.

- Completed applications and references are due February 28, 2017.
- Research opportunities in basic or translational science or in clinical research.
- Fellowships are available for Italians working at American institutions and for Americans working at Italian institutions.
- Awards are applicable for the 2017-18 academic year.
- Candidates must have received their advanced degrees within the past three years.
- Fellowships are a two-year commitment, pending favorable review of outcomes in year one.
