NCI Diversity Training Branch: Mentored Research Scientist Development Award (K01)

The Diversity Training Branch (DTB) of the Center to Reduce Cancer Health Disparities (CRCHD) at the National Cancer Institute (NCI) is offering the NCI Mentored Research Scientist Development Award (K01) to individuals underrepresented in health-related science. This grant provides support and protected time for a career development experience in biomedical, behavioral, or clinical sciences to achieve research independence. The award is non-renewable and aims to promote diversity in cancer research. Applicants must have a history of NIH diversity funding or mentorship. Candidates with clinical degrees have alternative grant options like the NCI Mentored Clinical Scientist Award (K08) or the NCI Mentored Patient-Oriented Research Award (K23) based on their career goals.

Description::	The purpose of the NCI Mentored Research Scientist Development Award (K01) is to provide support and protected time (three, four, or five years) for an intensive, supervised career development experience in the biomedical, behavioral, or clinical sciences leading to research independence. Awards are not renewable and they are not transferable from one principal investigator (PI) to another. The Diversity Training Branch (DTB) of the Center to Reduce Cancer Health Disparities (CRCHD), at the National Cancer Institute (NCI), invites career development award applications (K01) from individuals representative of groups that have been shown to be underrepresented in health-related science, who have been recipients of an NIH Research Supplement to Promote Diversity Award, any Ruth L. Kirschstein National Research Service Award (individual F31/F32 or institutional T32), or can demonstrate that they have been supported in a mentored capacity within any research grant equivalent to an NIH peer-reviewed research grant (e.g., American Cancer Society [ACS] research grant). Candidates with clinical degrees (e.g., MD) may wish to consider the NCI Mentored Clinical Scientist Award to Promote Diversity Award (K08) and candidates interested in patient-oriented research may wish to consider the NCI Mentored Patient-Oriented Research to Promote Diversity Award (K23) as more appropriate alternatives relative to their stage of development and career goals.
