J. Walter Juckett Scholar Award
Each year, VCC's long-time partner—the Lake Champlain Cancer Research Organization (LCCRO)—generously makes funding available for cancer research and academic awards to UVM faculty in several categories. The J. Walter Juckett Scholar Award is one such award. Historically, this award has laid the foundation for larger, NIH-funded grants.
This two-year grant is awarded every other year to an investigator who has a demonstrated record of sustained productivity in cancer research.
The J. Walter Juckett Scholar Award provides $75,000 over a two-year period. The award is non-renewable, and may not be used to support tenure track faculty salary.
