Which Mentored Research Career Development Award Is Right for Me?

0 comments

Early career investigators (postdoctoral and faculty) are often seeking a mentored research experience to further develop their careers in biomedical, behavioral, and clinical research. This includes new and early stage investigators who are doing research within the NIGMS mission and don’t have a major research grant. To make it easier to find the right program, we’ve launched a new web resource, Which NIGMS Mentored Career Development Award Is Right for Me?

0 comments

UPDATE: The deadline to respond to this RFI has been extended to October 15. See NOT-GM-24-059 for details.

NIGMS supports National and Regional Resources (NRRs) that provide biomedical researchers with access to mature technologies and Biomedical Technology Optimization and Dissemination (BTOD) Centers that optimize and disseminate late-stage technologies for the research community to use. The NRR-associated mature technologies are ready for researchers’ immediate use without further development. By contrast, the late-stage technologies supported by BTOD Centers require optimization prior to dissemination to the biomedical research community.
