NIAID Web Sites:
A video presentation of the NIAID Division of Intramural Research (DIR) that gives a first-hand look at the scientists who conduct research in allergy, immunology, and infectious diseases.
DIR scientists conduct basic and clinical research in immunology, allergy, and infectious diseases. More than 120 investigators lead research in laboratories located in Maryland and Montana. Research discoveries frequently translate into promising treatments or diagnostic procedures that can be evaluated in clinical trials at the NIH Clinical Center on the Bethesda campus. In addition to conducting research, DIR also provides many laboratory and clinical research training opportunities for young physicians and scientists.
This book describes the DIR facilities, the training opportunities for both clinical and laboratory research pathways, application information, overview of appointment mechanisms, and profiles of the laboratories and investigators that make up DIR. The information highlights the broad spectrum of research opportunities for applicants at various stages in their research careers.
The Research Technologies Branch offers investigators specialized support for advanced biotechnology research. The Branch provides access to state-of-the-art research technologies, scientific expertise, and technical support to enhance the research efforts of all NIAID intramural investigators.
The Dale and Betty Bumpers Vaccine Research Center (VRC) at NIH was established to facilitate research in vaccine development. VRC is dedicated to improving global human health through the rigorous pursuit of effective vaccines for human diseases.
NIH Web Sites:
The Office of Intramural Training and Education administers a variety of programs and initiatives to recruit and develop individuals who participate in research training activities on NIH's main campus in Bethesda, Maryland, as well as other facilities around the country. These activities range from internships at the precollege level through postdoctoral and clinical fellowships.
The Office of Science Education coordinates science education activities at NIH and develops and sponsors in-house science education projects. These programs serve elementary, secondary, and college students and teachers in addition to the public.
