The National Institutes of Health (NIH) is accepting applications for its Transformative Educational Advancement and Mentoring Network (TEAM).
The NIH Research Education Program (R25) supports research educational activities that complement other formal training programs in the mission areas of the NIH Institutes and Centers.
The overarching goal of this R25 program is to support educational activities that encourage individuals from diverse backgrounds, including those from groups underrepresented in the biomedical and behavioral sciences, to pursue further studies or careers in research.
Purposes
- The purpose of TEAM is to pilot test the use of TCs at MSIs, to provide education and career development navigation for diverse scholars.
- The program is designed to develop the skills and competencies for predoctoral, postdoctoral and/or ESIs to successfully compete for independent grant funding.
- Applications should be designed to provide scholars with the educational resources and tools needed to navigate the NIH funding process from identifying appropriate grant mechanisms through the application process and beyond.
- PI’s and MSI support faculty will also be expected to adapt or leverage culturally tailored educational activities, short courses, and resources that enhance subject matter expertise and professional career development.
Funding Information
- NCI/Center to Reduce Cancer Health Disparities (CRCHD) intends to commit $2.55 million in FY 2023 to fund five awards.
