NIMH Workshop on Research and Career Development Funding Opportunities |
|
| The National Institute of Mental Health of the National Institutes of Health seeks to reduce the burden of mental disorders and behavioral disorders through research on mind, brain, and behavior. This informal question-and-answer session will provide an opportunity for interested APHA investigators to obtain information about research grant opportunities and pre-application technical assistance in the broad areas briefly described below. Grant mechanisms support research at all stages of a research career, from pre- and post-doctoral fellowships to early-, mid-, and senior-level career salary-support awards (K Awards). Small Grants (RO3s, two years of support at up to $50,000 direct costs per year) and Exploratory/Developmental Grants (R21s and R34s, up to three years, up to $150,000 direct costs per year) are available for pilot research and the development of intervention protocols. Regular Research Grants (RO1s) provide support for up to five years at funding levels commensurate with the science proposed.
The NIMH would like to expand research in the basic neurosciences and behavioral sciences, research to identify potent, modifiable risk and protective factors amenable to intervention, and research on the delivery of services for mental disorders. |
| Learning Objectives: At the conclusion of the session, participants will be familiar with research and career development funding opportunities available through NIMH. |
