The International Research Scientist Development Award (IRSDA) K01 grant offers significant support and protected time, spanning three to five years, for advanced postdoctoral U.S. research scientists and recently-appointed U.S. junior faculty. This grant is specifically designed for an intensive, mentored research career development experience conducted within a low- or middle-income country (LMIC). Its primary purpose is to cultivate an independently-funded research career, specifically focused on critical global health issues. Applicants, who must be at least two years beyond their doctoral degree, are invited from any health-related discipline to propose career development activities and a research project directly relevant to the health priorities of the chosen LMIC, under the guidance of both LMIC and U.S. mentors.
