## Tips for applicants

- The practice partner is a gating requirement, without a named Danish actor embedded as co-applicant from submission, your application will be desk-rejected.
- Emphasise population-level scalability and implementation feasibility; this funder prioritises research that can translate to health system or public-health practice.
- Align your proposal explicitly to the Danish Cancer Society's prevention policy domains, generic prevention research may not meet scope even if high-quality.
