This addendum is to inform potential applicants for the NIDCR SCHOLAR 
DEVELOPMENT AND FACULTY TRANSITION AWARD, PAR-00-097, about several 
changes in the Eligibility Requirements for this award.  The first 
paragraph has been revised and now reads as follows:

 Individuals applying for this award must: (1) have obtained a doctoral 
degree (DDS/DMD, MD, DVM, PhD or equivalent), (2) be able to devote at 
least 75 percent of time to research-related activities, (3) not be or 
have been a principal investigator on an R01, R21, R29 or sub-project 
of a Program Project (P01) or Center (P50, P60) grant, and (4) be a 
U.S. citizen or noncitizen national, or must have been lawfully 
admitted for permanent residence and possess an Alien Registration 
Receipt card (I-151 or I-155) or some other verification of legal 
admission as a permanent citizen.  Individuals on temporary or student 
visas are not eligible.  In addition, any individual applying for both 
the Scholar Development and Faculty Transition phases of the K22 cannot 
have more than five years research training experience beyond their 
last doctoral degree. Those individuals applying directly for the 
Faculty Transition phase cannot have more than six years of research 
training experience beyond their last doctoral degree. The research 
experience for either phase could have been obtained in a postdoctoral 
(e.g., T32 trainee, F32 grantee or similar fellowship awards) or 
equivalent postgraduate position (e.g., approved clinical residency or 
advanced specialty program, individual or program research career 
development award funded by the NIH).  Those individuals applying for 
only the Faculty Transition phase of the K22 award may be in a tenure 
track line or similar position for no more than four years."

All other provisions of PAR-00-097 remain unchanged.  The complete PA 
can be found at http://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/pa-files/PAR-00-097.html.
