NINDS invites applications for Mentored Quantitative Research Development Awards. This announcement is made together with 17 other NIH components.
The purpose of the award is to attract investigators whose quantitative science and engineering research has not been focused primarily on health and disease. The award provides professionals with support and “protected time” for a period of supervised study and research so that they can integrate their expertise with NIH-relevant research. Examples of quantitative scientific and technical backgrounds considered appropriate for this award include mathematics, statistics, economics, computer science, imaging science, informatics, physics, chemistry, and engineering.
Potential applicants should contact Dr. Stephen Korn, director, Training and Career Development, NINDS; telephone: 301-496-4188; email: korns@ninds.nih.gov. For more information visit http://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/pa-files/PA-09-039.html.
