Program Overview

MAPCI is a comprehensive, multi-phase program for cancer-control researchers.

Scholars progress through an online prep course and small-group meetings; a five-day in-person institute; and targeted post-institute mentorship and community support.

Together these phases turn promising ideas into feasible, fundable adaptive intervention studies.
