Grant Description: The purpose of the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK) Mentored Research Scientist Development Award (K01) is to provide "protected time" for junior research scientists to facilitate their transition from the mentored to the independent stages of their careers in biomedical research. The NIDDK invites K01 applications from advanced postdoctoral and/or newly independent research scientists (usually with a Ph.D. degree) in biomedical or behavioral sciences who are pursuing careers in research areas supported by the NIDDK. By providing support for the critical transition period between postdoctoral training and independent R01 funding for non-clinical investigators, the NIDDK hopes to foster the careers of these investigators who are vital for the future excellence of the NIDDK research endeavor. Applicants must justify the need for a period of mentored research experience and provide a convincing case that the propose! d period of support will substantially enhance their careers as independent investigators.
