NINDS encourages applications for the NIH Pathway to Independence Award. This announcement is made together with 21 other NIH components.
One of the most challenging transitions in any research career is that from a postdoctoral trainee to an independent scientist. This award assists postdoctoral investigators in transitioning to a stable independent research position with NIH or other independent research funding. It not only allows investigators to transition at an earlier age, but also with an enhanced probability of success in obtaining NIH or other independent research support.
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-10-063.html.
