The NIH has re-issued the Ruth L. Kirschstein National Research Service Award (NRSA) Institutional Research Training Grants (T32) (PA-08-226) and Short-Term Institutional Research Training Grants (T35) (PA-08-227). Transition of institutional NRSA training programs from paper to electronic submission through Grants.gov using the SF424 (R&R) is expected to occur in 2009 (see: NOT-OD-08-073).

These changes include guidelines for applications proposing multiple Training Program Directors, research training for health professional students, clarifications and updates to the required program evaluation plan and reporting, and associated review criteria for Kirschstein-NRSA institutional research training FOAs.

Please note that these changes also apply to other current Kirschstein-NRSA institutional research training FOAs, and the changes will be made when each FOA is re-issued in the future. Because some FOAs may not have the latest policies incorporated within them, applicants must consult the NIH Training and Career Development website for a comprehensive listing of programs and policies (see http://grants1.nih.gov/training/extramural.htm).

Inquires about preparing a specific application or progress report should be directed to the Program Official and/or Grants Management Specialist of the awarding Institute or Center.
