NINDS invites applications for international neuroscience fellowships. This announcement is made together with 7 other NIH components.
The purpose of the fellowship is to advance the training of qualified foreign neuroscientists and clinicians at the early or mid-career level by enhancing their basic, translational, or clinical research skills in a research setting in the United States. The fellowships prepare awardees for independent careers in academia, research, or clinical institutions in their home country. The broader goals of the program are to strengthen neuroscience research in foreign institutions (particularly those with limited economic resources), enhance the quality and quantity of international neuroscience research, and foster long-lasting collaborations between foreign and US neuroscientists.
