About this position
NCI Mentored Research Scientist Development Award to Promote Diversity (K01) is a National Cancer Institute mentored research funding opportunity at the National Institutes of Health. It is designed to support eligible researchers from groups underrepresented in the biomedical, behavioral, social, and clinical sciences and to strengthen the diversity of the NCI-funded cancer research workforce.
The award provides salary and research support for a sustained period of protected time so the recipient can focus on intensive research career development. The program is explicitly mentored, with support provided under the guidance of an experienced mentor.
This is a recurring NIH fellowship/scholarship-style opportunity rather than a single lab-specific PhD project. The announcement is aimed at postdoctoral researchers, junior faculty, and MD-level applicants pursuing research development in cancer-related science.
