NRSA INSTITUTIONAL RESEARCH TRAINING GRANTS (T32)   NINR

Release Date:  January 28, 2000

NOTICE:  NR-00-001

National Institute of Nursing Research

The Notice  NIH National Research Service Award Institutional Research 
Training Grants,  NOT-97-007, was published in the NIH Guide on May 16, 
1997, and is located at 
http://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/notice-files/NOTICE-NOT-97-007.html
It seeks to encourage eligible institutions to develop or enhance 
research training opportunities for individuals, selected by the 
institution, who are training for careers in specified areas of 
biomedical and behavioral research.  The National Institute of Nursing 
Research (NINR) views the T32 as one way to ensure that nurse 
scientists, highly trained in nursing research, are available in 
adequate numbers to address important gaps in our biological and 
behavioral understanding of clinical problems.  

In addition to the diverse scientific areas that may be the focus of 
the institutional training grant, this Notice seeks to encourage 
potential T32 applicants to consider two particular areas of inquiry 
this year: genetics and health disparities of underserved populations.  
These two areas have recently been identified by NINR and approved by 
the National Advisory Council of Nursing Research as specific areas of 
scientific opportunity appropriate for research training at the 
predoctoral and postdoctoral level.  

Please note that T32 applications for the National Institute of Nursing 
Research are accepted annually for the receipt date of May 10.  

Inquires are encouraged.  The NINR website lists program directors who 
can assist prospective applicants in diverse areas of scientific 
opportunity:  http://www.ninr.nih.gov/a_staff.html
