NCI Comprehensive Minority Biomedical Branch supports the K01 through PAR-06-220 NCI Mentored Career Development Award to Promote Diversity (K01).The branch uses this grant mechanism for the continuing career development of underrepresented minority scientists who have been recipients of an NIH Research Supplement for Underrepresented Minority Award, any National Research Service Award or can demonstrate that they have been supported in a mentored capacity within any research grant equivalent to an NIH peer-reviewed research grant. The purpose of the K01 is to provide support and "protected time" (3, 4, or 5 years) for an intensive, supervised career development experience in the biomedical, behavioral, and/or clinical sciences leading to research independence. Additional information is available at PAR-06-220

Junior-level clinically-trained individuals should apply for the Mentored Clinical Scientist Development Award (K08), PA-00-003, or the Mentored Patient-Oriented Research Career Development Award (K23), PA-05-143, as appropriate,  Further information on the NIDCD translational research program is available at PAR-05-023.

Research projects proposed in response to this Announcement will be expected to have a defined impact on the environmental health sciences and be directly responsive to the mission of the NIEHS, which is distinguished from that of other Institutes by its focus on research programs seeking to link the effects of environmental exposures to the cause, mechanisms, moderation, or prevention of a human disease or disorder or relevant pathophysiologic process. Applications must include as part of the justification the specific human disease, dysfunction, pathophysiologic condition, or relevant human biologic process altered, and the specific environmentally relevant toxicant. Examples of environmentally relevant toxicants include industrial chemicals or manufacturing byproducts, metals, pesticides, herbicides, air pollutants and other inhaled toxicants, particulates or fibers, fungal, bacterial, or biologically derived toxins. Agents considered non-responsive to this announcement include, but are not limited to: alcohol, chemotherapeutic agents, radiation which is not the result of an ambient environmental exposure, drugs of abuse, and infectious or parasitic agents. Ecologic, biomonitoring, biotransformation or biodegradation studies are also not responsive. Applicants must demonstrate  a significant career shift or career enhancement activity which  will achieve research independence upon completion of the program.    Preference will be given to candidates whose mentor has NEIHS research grant support.
