INCREASED ELIGIBILITY OF POSTDOCTORAL FEDERAL EMPLOYEES FOR THE NATIONAL CANCER INSTITUTE TRANSITION CAREER DEVELOPMENT AWARD (K22) Release Date: February 23, 2000 NOTICE: CA-00-011 National Cancer Institute In order to create equal access of postdoctoral scientists working as Federal employees (e.g., National Institutes of Health, Environmental Protection Agency) to extramural career development opportunities, the National Cancer Institute (NCI) announces a specialized expansion of the eligibility requirements of the Transition Career Development Award (K22). This announcement establishes that postdoctoral scientists working in basic research as Federal employees, who have at least three years of Amentored@ postdoctoral research experience at the time of award, may apply for an NCI ATransition Career Development Award@, as long as the proposed research is directly relevant to human cancer. The intent of the NCI is to provide postdoctoral candidates under Federal employment an opportunity for further career development similar to what is currently available to extramural postdoctoral scientists through the NCI Howard Temin Award (K01). Applications for this specialized K22 award would be evaluated concurrently with and by the same standards as applications for the Howard Temin Award. More detailed information about the K22 and the Howard Temin Award is available at the following websites: Howard Temin Award: http://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/pa-files/PAR-00-066.html Transition Career Development Award: http://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/pa-files/PAR-99-094.html INQUIRIES: Before applying, consult NCI staff for guidance and advice at the following address: Cancer Training Branch National Cancer Institute 6116 Executive Blvd. Suite 7011, MSC 8346 Bethesda, MD 20892-8346 Telephone: (301) 496-8580 FAX: (301) 402-4472 E-mail: lg2h@nih.gov
