Midcareer Investigator Award in Patient-Oriented Research (K24): The purpose of the Midcareer Investigator Award in Patient-Oriented Research is to provide support for clinician investigators to allow them protected time to devote to patient-oriented research (POR) and to act as research mentors primarily for clinical residents, clinical fellows and/or junior clinical faculty. This award is primarily intended for clinician investigators who are at the Associate Professor level or are functioning at that rank in an academic setting or equivalent non-academic setting, and who have an established record of independent, peer-reviewed Federal or private research grant funding in POR. This award is intended to advance both the research and the mentoring endeavors of outstanding patient-oriented investigators. It is expected, for example, that investigators will obtain new or additional independent peer-reviewed funding as the PI for POR and establish and assume leadership roles in collaborative POR programs; and that there will be an increased effort and commitment to mentor beginning clinician investigators in POR to enhance the research productivity of the investigator and increase the pool of well-trained clinical researchers of the future. With a view to achieving these objectives, the maximum level of allowable Research Development Costs has been increased in this announcement from $25,000 to $50,000 per year.For the purposes of this award, and in agreement with the recommendations of the NIH Directors Panel on Clinical Research, (http://www.nih.gov/news/crp/97report/index.htm), patient-oriented research is defined as research conducted with human subjects (or on material of human origin such as tissues, specimens and cognitive phenomena)for which an investigator directly interacts with human subjects. This area of research includes 1) mechanisms of human disease; 2) therapeutic interventions; 3) clinical trials, and; 4) the development of new technologies. Studies falling under Exemption 4 for human subjects research are not included in this definition.
