Appendix 12: Sklare Updated Comments
From: Sklare, Daniel (NIH/NIDCD) Sent: Thursday, September 25, 2003, 7:22 AM To: Gulya, Julie (NIH/NIDCD) Cc: Donahue, Amy (NIH/NIDCD); Platt, Christopher (NIH/NIDCD) Subject: Clarification Concerning NIH Loan Repayment Programs
Dear Julie:
In response to a question posed by Dr. Saumil Merchant at your recent TB Histopathology Workshop, I would appreciate if you would email the workshop participants the following clarification concerning the NIH Extramural Loan Repayment Programs ( LRPs ):
Eligibility for the LRPs is predicated on a 50% (20-hour per week) time commitment to research during the two-year period of educational loan repayment by the NIH. An applicant's research must be funded by a nonprofit or a government entity; research funding from one's academic (or nonacademic) department is acceptable, as long as the employer is nonprofit.
Thanks for disseminating this information.
Dan
