Predoctoral Training at the Interface of the Behavioral and Biomedical Sciences (T32): -The National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS) will award Ruth L. Kirschstein National Research Service Award (NRSA) Institutional Training Grants (T32) to eligible institutions to support predoctoral research trainees at the behavioral sciences-biomedical sciences interface. The goal of the program is to develop basic behavioral scientists with rigorous broad-based training in biology and biomedical science, who are available to assume leadership roles related to the Nation s biomedical, behavioral and clinical research needs. These programs must provide an interdisciplinary research training experience and curriculum for predoctoral trainees that integrates both behavioral and biomedical perspectives, approaches and methodologies. These training programs must include coursework, laboratory rotations and programmatic activities that reinforce training at this interface. Significant participation by faculty and leadership from both behavioral and biomedical science departments is required, as is co-mentoring of trainees by faculty from both components. -These awards will support only full-time predoctoral trainees. Support will be for early-year support, typically for 1-3 years, generally during the pre-dissertation stage. -It is anticipated that 5 to 10 awards will be made. Because the nature and scope of the proposed research training will vary from application to application, it is anticipated that the size of each award will also vary. However, the total amount awarded and the number of awards will depend upon the numbers, quality, duration, and costs of the applications received.

- Applicants Eligible for this Grant
- Others (see text field entitled "Additional Information on Eligibility" for clarification) Nonprofits having a 501(c)(3) status with the IRS, other than institutions of higher education Private institutions of higher education Public and State controlled institutions of higher education Nonprofits that do not have a 501(c)(3) status with the IRS, other than institutions of higher education
- Additional Information on Eligibility
- Foreign institutions are not eligible to apply. The intent of this PA is to establish training programs that are broad-based, multi-departmental and interdisciplinary, rather than focused upon a specific disease or developmental stage. The application should include evidence that the training program meets these objectives. Trainees appointed to the research training program must have the opportunity to carry out supervised biomedical, behavioral, or clinical research with the primary objective of developing or enhancing their research skills and knowledge in preparation for a health-related research career at the behavior-biomedical research interface. Programs must provide an interdisciplinary research training experience and curriculum for predoctoral trainess that integrates both behavioral and biomedical perspectives, approaches and methodologies. Training programs must include coursework, laboratory rotations and programmatic activities that reinforce training at this interface. Trainees must be able to commit full-time effort, normally defined as 40 hours per week, or as specified by the sponsoring institution in accordance with its own policies, to the program and its related research activities, consonant with NRSA guidelines. Within the 40 hours per week training period, research trainees who are also training as clinicians must devote their time to the proposed research training and must confine clinical duties to those that are an integral part of the research training experience. Predoctoral trainees must have received a baccalaureate degree by the beginning date of their NRSA appointment, and must be training at the postbaccalaureate level and be enrolled in a program leading to a Ph.D. in science or in an equivalent research doctoral degree program.
