DoD Ovarian Cancer, Ovarian Cancer Clinical Trial Academy – Leadership Award

The OCRP established an Ovarian Cancer Academy (OCA) in 2009. The OCA is a unique, interactive virtual academy that provides intensive mentoring, national networking, collaborations, and a peer group for junior faculty. The overarching goal of the OCA was to develop successful, highly productive ovarian cancer researchers in a collaborative research and career development environment.In FY23, OCRP is initiating a new academy, the Ovarian Cancer Clinical Trial Academy (OCCTA), which will focus on clinical trial research in ovarian cancer. The intention of the OCCTA is to enhance knowledge within next generation of early career investigators in clinical trial research and to produce effective treatments and cures for ovarian cancer. The OCCTA will bring together established investigators (the Academy Dean and Assistant Dean), established Career Guides (mentors), and a group of Early Career Investigators (ECIs)/Scholars to conduct successful, highly productive clinical trials in ovarian cancer.
