OpportunityTitle: AHRQ Grants for Health Services Research Dissertation (R36)
AdditionalInformationOnEligibility: Foreign institutions are not eligible to apply. Any individual with the skills, knowledge, and resources necessary to carry out the proposed research is invited to work with his or her institution to develop an application for support. Individuals from underrepresented racial and ethnic groups as well as individuals with disabilities are always encouraged to apply for AHRQ programs.  Applicants are eligible to apply for this award provided that:           - You are registered in an accredited research doctoral degree program;     - You are in good-standing in that program;     - You will have completed all non-dissertation requirements for your degree by the anticipated start date of the award (except a clinical internship where that is required to follow the dissertation phase);     - Your doctoral committee has approved your dissertation proposal by the time of the grant award; and,     - You are a U.S. citizen, non-citizen national (e.g., residents of U.S. territories), or permanent resident by the time of award.           Note that individuals supported under Ruth Kirschstein National Research Service Award mechanisms including T32, F31 and F32 research training awards are eligible to apply for a dissertation award.  However, as these awards cover full-time effort and provide a small amount that may be used to support dissertation research expenses, such students may only receive the up to $15,000 allowed for additional, non-salary expenses, and must provide a statement that these expenses are not supported through the active training grant or fellowship. The request for support must also satisfy institutional policies. Recipients of mentored career development awards are not eligible for dissertation support.
