Upcoming Site Visit and Space Holds

In January 2024, the Fred Hutch/University of Washington/Seattle Children’s Cancer Consortium will be submitting the Cancer Center Support Grant (CCSG) competing renewal application for the next 5-year grant cycle. The CCSG is an infrastructure grant that supports the Consortium as an NCI-designated Comprehensive Cancer Center. After the grant is submitted, we will work with NCI to identify a date for our site visit. This peer-review process will evaluate the scientific merit of the Consortium and is a critical step in maintaining our NCI Comprehensive Cancer Center designation. It is vitally important that the site visit goes well, and Dr. Lynch is committed to hosting a number of practice sessions between January and the date of the actual site visit. Unfortunately, we will not know the date of the site visit until after our grant submission in late January. 

As a result, we've placed multiple holds on several of the large conference rooms on campus between late April and the end of May for potential practice sessions and site visit dates. Many of these holds will be released after we receive confirmation of our site visit date from the NCI, but for the time being, it's important that we be prepared. Please see below for a current list of holds:
