NINDS encourages applications for Pathway to Independence Awards. This announcement is made together with 23 other NIH components.
NIH believes that the creativity and innovation of new independent investigators early in their career play an integral role in addressing our nation’s biomedical, behavioral, and clinical research needs. One of the most challenging transitions in any research career is the transition from postdoctoral trainee to independent scientist. The objective of this award is to assist postdoctoral investigators in transitioning to a stable independent research position with NIH or other independent research funding.
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-09-036.html.
