SUPPLEMENTAL AWARDS FOR ADDITIONAL TIME AND SUPPORT FOR CLINICAL ASSOCIATE PHYSICAN (CAP) AWARDS (RR-99-008) Release date: September 2, 1999 National Center for Research Resources This notice is to inform the scientific community that a limited competition RFA is being issued by the National Center for Research Resources (NCRR). NCRR is requesting competitive supplemental applications for additional time and support of one or two years from Clinical Associate Physician (CAP) and Minority Clinical Associate Physician (MCAP) awardees that were awarded under guidelines in effect prior to February 1, 1998. The previous guidelines allowed only up to three years of support, whereas subsequent CAP guidelines permit up to five years of support for mentored career development. Thus, this funding opportunity is restricted to CAP/MCAP awardees that are currently supported with a 3-year project period and those that completed 3 years of training in fiscal year 1999. Successful applications will be awarded as competitive supplements to the General Clinical Research Center (GCRC) grant at the institution with which the CAP is affiliated. The terms of support will follow the current CAP guidelines, which are available from the NCRR website at http://www.ncrr.nih.gov/clinical/cr_crcd.asp. The application deadline is October 15, 1999. The proposed period of support is for 1 or 2 years, as determined by the request of the applicant and as recommended by the GCRC peer review committee and the National Research Resources Advisory Council. The dollar amount of the awards will depend on the number of applications received, the availability of funds, and peer review recommendations.
