Limited Submission Opportunity
NIH – Training for a New Interdisciplinary Research Workforce (T90) RFA-RM-06-006

Program Description

Towards the goal of catalyzing the production of a scientific workforce capable of integrative research crossing traditional disciplinary boundaries, the National Institutes of Health invites applications for developing and implementing novel training programs focused on interdisciplinary science. This funding opportunity will support programs that will enable the development of novel research training and education programs that provide integrated interdisciplinary training for undergraduates, predoctoral and/or postdoctoral trainees, or independent faculty–level investigators. This funding opportunity supports basic and clinical research to develop an interdisciplinary knowledge base for care across the life span, across disciplines, across settings during states of illness and health. http://grants1.nih.gov/grants/guide/rfa-files/RFA-RM-06-006.html
