This award supports impactful research projects with an emphasis on discovery.Under this award mechanism, the early-career investigator is considered the Principal Investigator (PI), and the application should focus on the PI&#8217;s research and career development. It should be clear that the proposed research is intellectually designed by the PI and not a product of the Mentor. Preliminary data are not required. However, logical reasoning and a soundscientific rationale for the proposed research must be demonstrated.
