Office of Behavioral and Social Sciences Research Promoting Diversity Through Mentoring Linking Behavioral and Social Science Through The Web

Institute Co-ordinators

Principal Investigators interested in mentoring underrepresented applicants in behavioral and social sciences research may apply for a supplement to their current award. The NIH Research Supplements to Promote Diversity in Health-Related Research program provide support for underrepresented populations at the high school to junior faculty level. Institutes support the Research Supplements to Promote Diversity in Health-Related Research program to the degree that funding is available. If funding is not immediately available for a supplement, other avenues of collaboration or mentorship may be pursued.

For information about the program, please refer to the Research Supplements to Promote Diversity in Health-Related Research program announcement. For additional assistance, please contact the following individuals who coordinate the program for their Institutes:
