The National Institutes of Health (NIH) is offering the Career Transition Award (K22) for NINDS Intramural Clinician-Scientists, aimed at facilitating the transition of neurologist and neurosurgeon scientists into independent academic faculty roles that integrate scientific research with clinical practice. This grant supports a two-phase program, providing up to five years of funding: two years in an intramural setting at NIH followed by at least three years at an extramural academic institution, where applicants must develop a comprehensive career development plan and submit an NIH R01 application for continued funding. The program emphasizes the establishment of independent research careers in neuroscience, requiring applicants to be clinically licensed and within four years post-residency or clinical fellowship, with a strong focus on mentorship and institutional support. Interested applicants should note that the application deadline is November 12, 2024, and can reach out to the NIH OER Webmaster at OERWebmaster03@od.nih.gov for further inquiries.
