National
Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute
Model K24 Application
The attached application is provided as a model for individuals who are planning
to apply for a Midcareer Investigator Award in Patient-Oriented Research (K24)
from the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI). The model application
has been posted in response to frequent requests for examples of successful
applications that were highly rated by the Initial Review Group (IRG). The model
is representative of applications focusing on cardiovascular diseases. It is
offered as an example only and should not preclude potential applicants from
seeking further advice from experienced colleagues or from research training
staff members at NHLBI.
This application uses an earlier version of PHS 398. However, current applicants
should use the newer version of the PHS 398 application. Information
of an identifying and proprietary nature such as the level
of effort; the timetable; the name of the applicant and the
names of collaborators, mentors, and institutions has been
removed and replaced with the underline symbol “_____.”
In some instances, the applicant’s name has been replaced
with “the candidate,” and the names of mentors
and institutions have been replaced with “the mentor”
or “the institution.” Also, this model application
does not include the face page; budget pages; biographical
sketch; other support; letters of reference; statements by
consultant(s), and collaborator(s); institutional commitment
to candidate; literature cited; consortium/contractual arrangements;
consultant(s) and appendix pages, all of these must
be included in K24 applications.
