The NINR funds this program to enable mid-career health professionals to make awards to individuals research training in specified areas, using the standard NRSA stipend and budgetary levels announced in the NIH guide for Gants & Contracts annually.  NINR supports and conducts clinical and basic research and research training on acute and chronic illness across the life span, focusing on health promotion, disease prevention, health disparities, caregiving, management of symptoms, self-management, and care at the end of life.  NINR seeks to extend nursing science by integrating the biological and behavioral sciences, applying new technologies to research questions, improving the quality and effectiveness of interventions, and developing clinical research investigators.  In so doing, the NINR is helping to address the critical shortage of faculty, which both contributes to, and is affected by, the increasing gap between the supply and demand in the workforce.
