NCI
Specific Information:
NCI requires
a clear cancer focus in graduate research training and gives funding priority to applications
whose sponsor and/or co-sponsor have active cancer-related R01, or R01-like, peer-reviewed
research grants. For the NCI F31 Award, R01-like research funding includes peer-reviewed
research grants from other federal sources and private foundations with a duration of at least 3
years with a minimum of $150,000 direct costs per year. Grants under a no-cost extension do not
qualify.

NHGRI
Specific Information:
NHGRI will
consider only applications that propose research training directly relevant to the mission of
NHGRI. NHGRI supports resources, approaches, and technologies that accelerate genomic research
focused on the structure and biology of genomes; the genomics of disease; the implementation and
effectiveness of genomic medicine; computational genomics and data science; the impact of
genomic technology, advances, and implementation on health disparities and health equity; and
ethical, legal, and social issues related to genomic advances. NHGRI recognizes the importance
of diversity in the genomic workforce, without which the promise of genomics cannot be fully
achieved.
In
general, NHGRI supports studies that provide generalizable methods and knowledge. Approaches
that are comprehensive across the genome or are generalizable across variants, tissues,
diseases, or function may be in scope for NHGRI to the extent they address priority areas
described in the NHGRI
2020 Strategic Vision and on
the web pages for the research mission of NHGRI’s Extramural Divisions and Offices. NHGRI does
not support disease-specific research.
Prospective
applicants are strongly encouraged to contact the Scientific Program Contact before preparing an
application to discuss the relevance of the proposed research to the Institute's research
priorities.

NIEHS
Specific Information:
Training
opportunities supported under this announcement by the NIEHS are expected to focus on the
environmental health sciences and be responsive to the mission of the NIEHS, which is to reduce
the burden of human illness and dysfunction from environmental causes by understanding how
environmental factors, individual susceptibility and age interrelate in the disease
process.
Fellowship
applications should examine/address how an environmentally relevant toxicant or exposure is, or
might be, involved in a human health endpoint such as a specific human disease, dysfunction,
pathophysiologic condition, or relevant disease process. Examples of environmentally relevant
toxicants include industrial chemicals or manufacturing byproducts, metals, pesticides,
herbicides, air pollutants and other inhaled toxicants, particulates or fibers, and
fungal/bacterial or biologically derived toxins. Agents considered non-responsive to this
announcement include, but are not limited to: alcohol, drugs of abuse, pharmaceuticals,
chemotherapeutic agents, radiation which is not a result of an ambient environmental exposure,
and infectious or parasitic agents, except when agents are disease co-factors to an
environmental toxicant exposure to produce the biological effect.
Fellowship
applications may include research in the Environmental Public Health field in which communities
which are exposed to environmental exposures or have concerns about environmentally related
diseases are actively engaged in all stages of research, dissemination and evaluation. Examples
of proposals in the Environmental Public Health field include investigating the health effects /
impacts of environmental exposures that disproportionately burden low income or minority
communities, investigating emerging environmental threats to communities, investigating
exposure-related diseases that are of great concern to a community, and research and evaluation
methodology to improve the theories and implementation strategies for working with communities
to address their environmental health concerns. Fellows would learn how to conduct research
using community based participatory methods, create outreach and education programs and
translate research finding to a vast array of stakeholders.

NINDS
Specific Information:
NINDS
utilizes the F31 grant mechanism to support outstanding predoctoral students who are engaged in
research and training that will result in rigorous, broadly based neuroscience expertise. Thus,
in addition to the relevance of the research to the NINDS mission, NINDS gives priority to
students who will also obtain strong neuroscience training. Applications may, in some cases,
also be supported from students training in other disciplines for the purpose of conducting
research directly focused on the NINDS mission. Potential applicants may wish to contact an
NINDS Program Director before they begin to prepare their application to ensure that their
training plans, as well as their research project, fit within NINDS priorities. F31 support will
be provided for a maximum of 3 years. In addition, students must be within the first 6 years of
graduate school to receive support. Exceptions to these policies may be made in rare and unusual
circumstances and will require a written waiver from the Director of Training and Career
Development. Any waiver will require a detailed written justification and should be requested at
least six months prior to the termination date of the fellowship award. Applicants should
consult the NINDS training website for NINDS specific information and
instructions: https://www.ninds.nih.gov/Funding/Training-Career-Development/Fellowships#F31.
