This NIH/NINDS grant offers the Neuroscience Development for Advancing the Careers of a Diverse Research Workforce (R25) program. It aims to enhance diversity within the biomedical, behavioral, and clinical research workforce. This is achieved by increasing the pool of Ph.D.-level research scientists from underrepresented backgrounds in neuroscience and by facilitating their career advancement. The grant supports creative educational activities, including NINDS-relevant research experiences, mentorship for leadership and competencies, and skills development courses. Programs that target multiple career stages and transitions are strongly encouraged. Applicants should note that funding depends on both scientific merit and alignment with current NINDS programmatic priorities, and contacting NINDS staff before applying is recommended.

Description: | The NIH Research Education Program (R25) supports research education activities in the mission areas of the NIH. The over-arching goal of this NINDS Neuroscience Development for Advancing the Careers of a Diverse Research Workforce R25 program is to support educational activities that enhance the diversity of the biomedical, behavioral and clinical research workforce by (1) increasing the pool of current and future Ph.D.-level research scientists from diverse backgrounds underrepresented in biomedical neuroscience research; and (2) facilitating the career advancement/transition of the participants to the next step of their neuroscience careers. To accomplish the stated over-arching goal, this FOA will support creative educational activities with a primary focus on NINDS relevant research experiences, mentoring activities that enhance compentencies or leadership education and courses on skills development. Programs that target transitions and/or more than one career stage for neuroscience career advancement and progression are strongly encouraged. NINDS support for this R25 program relies equally on scientific merit and programmatic considerations. Consequently, we recommend that potential applicants contact Scientific/Research staff at NINDS before preparing an application. NINDS will not support projects if they do not fulfill current programmatic priorities at NINDS. |
