Komen will change the release dates for its RFAs in the 2008-2009 grants cycle to provide additional time for submission and review. Specific release dates will be set by the Komen Scientific Advisory Board in April 2008. Generally, RFAs will be release in two cycles, the first in early summer focusing on research support and the second in the fall focusing on training support. Other RFAs addressing particularly important or timely issues may be released at other times during the year.
