The PCC is proud to support young scientific investigators around the world committed to high quality research and discovery. To this end, the PCC supports two American Physiological Society Awards annually: The PCC Postdoctoral Award, and the PCC Graduate Award. Both [...]
For our first Myth Vs. Fact blog series installment, we're tackling myths related to the PCC itself! We test athletes Nope! We fund the science that creates and advances anti-doping technology. For instance, the techniques and devices used by sample collection [...]
Recently, we discussed that 70% of PCC funded primary investigators are NOT affiliated with an anti-doping laboratory at the time of their award. Rather, these researchers represent various fields of science and conduct their projects within academic institutions or industry labs. [...]
A new paper, published by the team led by Dr. David Cowan at the WADA-Accredited Drug Control Centre at King’s College London, has been published in “Rapid Communications in Mass Spectrometry.” The research focuses on the usage of P-III-NP as a [...]
A common misconception about anti-doping science is that practitioners of research in this field are all associated with anti-doping laboratories. In fact, the majority of investigators we fund represent numerous fields of science (from analytical chemistry to physiology), and conduct their [...]
The PCC wants to ensure our programs best serve the community of scientists carrying out the important work that helps us meet our mission: detecting and deterring the usage of performance enhancing drugs through high quality science. In 2017, we realized [...]
SAB Member Dr. Al Matsumoto has been recognized with the Mayo Soley Award, a top honor from the Western Society for Clinical Investigation. The award, presented at the Western Medical Research Conference (formerly the Western Regional Meeting) in Carmel, CA, is [...]
We are excited to present to you our winter newsletter: your opportunity to explore a sampling of the achievements, perspectives and scientific projects of our researchers, while keeping informed of funding deadlines and programs. We hope you enjoy. Click the square [...]
It is with great delight that we announce the bestowal of the prestigious Alan Curry Award to Dr. Bryan Finkle, and it is with both sadness and best wishes that we announce his retirement from the PCC Scientific Advisory Board (SAB) [...]
Many research projects recommended for PCC funding are complex scientific endeavors requiring multiple years (and phases) of investigation. In these cases, the PCC will prorate funding across the project’s duration. Traditionally, a PI submits a budget that delineates the amount required [...]
