Purpose

This Notice supersedes NOT-14-NS-026, and establishes the maximum travel support that NINDS will award T32 PDs/PIs to cover the costs associated with attending T32 Regional Meetings.

NINDS supports institutional training programs (T32s) for both predoctoral and postdoctoral fellows that are intended to develop a strong next generation of neuroscientists engaged in research and NINDS-mission relevant research-associated occupations. These programs are expected to facilitate the development of a highly qualified, diverse workforce.

The purpose of this Notice is to inform awardees of NINDS T32 training programs that it will continue holding periodic meetings among the PDs/PIs, and to offset the costs associated with attendance at these meetings, NINDS will provide up to $700 direct cost directly to the T32 grants for grant PDs/PIs or their designees to attend the meetings. When meetings are scheduled, the Director, NINDS Office of Training, Career Development and Workforce Diversity will notify PDs/PIs with additional information, including instructions for requesting funds.
