PAR-22-220 – Postbaccalaureate Research Education Program (PREP) (R25 - Independent Clinical Trial Not Allowed)
National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS)
The National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS) will host an informational webinar to provide advice and respond to questions from prospective applicants to PAR-22-220 “Postbaccalaureate Research Education Program (PREP) (R25)" on Friday, December 9, 2022, at 1:00 p.m. ET.
The goal of PREP is to develop a diverse pool of well-trained postbaccalaureates who transition into and complete rigorous biomedical, research-focused doctoral degree programs (e.g., Ph.D. or M.D./Ph.D.) in biomedical fields relevant to the NIGMS mission. PREP is limited to research-intensive institutions, i.e., those with an average of NIH Research Project Grant (RPG) funding greater than or equal to $7.5 million total costs per year over the past 3 fiscal years (RPG data are available through NIH RePORTER).
