Kirschstein National Research Service Award (NRSA) Fellowship for Students at Institutions Without NIH-Funded Institutional Predoctoral Dual-Degree Training Programs (Parent F30)The overall goal of the NIH Ruth L. Kirschstein National Research Service Award (NRSA) program is to help ensure that a diverse pool of highly trained scientists is available in appropriate scientific disciplines to address the nation's biomedical, behavioral, and clinical research needs. NRSA fellowships support the training of pre- and postdoctoral scientists, dual-degree investigators, and senior researchers. More information about NRSA programs may be found at the Ruth L. Kirschstein National Research Service Award (NRSA) website.This funding opportunity will support students at institutions without NIH-funded institutional predoctoral dual-degree training programs. In a companion funding opportunity (PA-21-049), the NIH is also seeking F30 applications from students at institutions with NIH-funded institutional predoctoral dual-degree training programs; the NIDCD, as of September 2016, is also participating in this second funding opportunity.There is a critical need for physician-scientists and other clinician-scientists to investigate human health and disease through rigorous research. The complexity of biomedical, behavioral, and clinical science poses a challenge in the integration of research training into the standard course of study at most medical schools and other health professional schools. To address this challenge, a variety of programs have been developed to combine training for the M.D. or other health professional degrees (e.g., Au.D.) with extensive research experience leading to a second, advanced degree. It is expected that individuals who are both physicians/clinicians and highly trained scientists will play a vital role in advancing knowledge across the full spectrum of health-related research.The purpose of the Kirschstein-NRSA Individual Predoctoral M.D./Ph.D. or Other Dual-Doctoral Degree Fellowship (F30) is to support highly promising predoctoral students who are matriculated in a combined M.D./Ph.D. or other dual-doctoral degree training program (e.g., Au.D./Ph.D.) during their mentored dissertation research training and clinical training under the guidance of outstanding faculty sponsors. This program thus contributes to efforts to increase the pool of highly trained physician/clinician-scientists in the biomedical research workforce.The NIDCD invites applications for this funding opportunity. This initiative is designed to increase the number of clinician-scientists trained to conduct basic, translational, and clinical research in the normal and disordered processes of hearing, balance, taste, smell, voice, speech, and language.The NIDCD’s Scientific Review Branch conducts the initial peer review of applications for this fellowship program, based on an expedited schedule of four to five months from submission to award. Consultation with the NIDCD research training officer is strongly encouraged during the early stages of preparing an application; see the funding opportunity for contact information.*Eligibility and Requirements. Eligibility is limited to institutions without NIH-funded institutional predoctoral dual-degree training programs.* See the funding opportunity for additional eligibility information.Standard application submission dates apply. All applications must be submitted electronically.Ruth L.

Kirschstein National Research Service Award (NRSA) Fellowship for Students at Institutions With NIH-Funded Institutional Predoctoral Dual-Degree Training Programs (Parent F30)This funding opportunity will support students at institutions with NIH-funded institutional predoctoral dual-degree training programs. In a companion funding opportunity (PA-21-050), NIH is also seeking F30 applications from students at institutions without NIH-funded institutional predoctoral dual-degree training programs. The intent of this two-funding opportunity approach is to ensure equitable review of applications from these two kinds of institutions, as well as better tracking of fellowship awardees’ future progress in establishing independent careers as physician/clinician-scientists.The purpose of the Kirschstein-NRSA, dual-doctoral degree, predoctoral fellowship (F30) is to enhance the integrated research and clinical training of promising predoctoral students, who are matriculated in a combined M.D./Ph.D. or other dual-doctoral degree training program (e.g., DO/Ph.D., DDS/Ph.D., Au.D./Ph.D., DVM/Ph.D.), and who intend careers as physician/clinician-scientists. Applicants must propose an integrated research and clinical training plan and a dissertation research project in scientific health-related fields relevant to the missions of the participating NIH Institutes and Centers. The fellowship experience is expected to clearly enhance the individual's potential to develop into a productive, independent physician/clinician-scientist.Because of the difference in individual Institute and Center (IC) program requirements for this funding opportunity, prospective applications must consult the Table of IC-Specific Information, Requirements and Staff Contacts, to make sure that their application is responsive to the requirements of one of the participating NIH ICs. Prior consultation with NIH staff is strongly encouraged.*Eligibility and Requirements.* *Eligibility is limited to institutions with NIH-funded institutional predoctoral dual-degree training programs.* See the funding opportunity for additional eligibility information.Standard application submission dates apply.
