Multidisciplinary K12 Urologic Research (KURe) Career Development Program: The purpose of this opportunity is to solicit applications to support institutional career development programs in urological research that will assist MDs, PhDs, and MD/PhDs interested in benign urological disease or urological research related to the mission of the NIDDK (http://www2.niddk.nih.gov/Research/ScientificAreas/Urology/ ) to develop the skills necessary to initiate and sustain an independent research career in urological research. Approximately $2 million is anticipated to be available to support this initial effort. As many as three awards may be made; if funds are available and there is sufficient interest, this funding opportunity may be announced again in coming years. This opportunity uses the K12 mentored career development mechanism to allow institutions to provide comprehensive, individualized career development training for selected candidates. The training will prepare the candidate for an independent clinical, translational, or basic science career in urological research. Eligible organizations include: Public/State Controlled Institution of Higher Education, Private Institution of Higher Education, Nonprofit with 501(c)(3) IRS Status (Other than Institution of Higher Education), For-Profit Organization (Other than Small Business), State Government, U.S. Territory or Possession, Hispanic-serving Institution, Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs), Tribally Controlled Colleges and Universities (TCCUs), and Alaska Native and Native Hawaiian Serving Institutions Eligible principal investigators include established researchers in urological research related to the mission of the NIDDK (http://www2.niddk.nih.gov/Research/ScientificAreas/Urology/ ) who can provide both administrative and scientific leadership to the Program. Applicant institutions may submit only one application. See Section IV.1 for application materials.
