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)

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.
