AdditionalInformationOnEligibility: See NOT-AG-24-068
Description: The National Institute on Aging intends to promote a new initiative by publishing a Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) to invite applications to establish new institutional training programs for aging research.The overall goal of the NIH Ruth L. Kirschstein National Research Service Award (NRSA) program is to help ensure that a diverse pool of highly trained scientists is available in appropriate scientific disciplines to address the Nation&apos;s biomedical, behavioral, and clinical research needs. In order to accomplish this goal, NRSA training programs are designed to train individuals to conduct research and to prepare for research careers. More information about NRSA programs may be found at the Ruth L. Kirschstein National Research Service Award (NRSA) website.The NRSA program has been the primary means of supporting predoctoral and postdoctoral research training programs since enactment of the NRSA legislation in 1974. Institutional NRSA programs allow the Training Program Director/Principal Investigator (Training PD/PI) to select trainees and develop an enhanced program of coursework, mentored research experiences, and technical and professional skills development appropriate for the appointed trainees that provides added value to already existing programs.The grant offsets the cost of stipends, tuition and fees, and training related expenses, including health insurance, for the appointed trainees in accordance with the approved NIH support levels.This Notice is being provided to allow potential applicants sufficient time to develop meaningful collaborations and responsive projects.The NOFO is expected to be published in February 2025 with an expected application due date in May 2025.This NOFO will utilize the T32 activity code. Details of the planned NOFO are provided below.
