DECEMBER 23, 2003 - NEW INTERDISCIPLINARY TRAINING RFA RELEASED

A new RFA (Request for Applications), designed to stimulate the
development of interdisciplinary training programs, was issued as part
of the NIH Roadmap activities. The purpose of this RFA is to encourage
and enable the development of an interdisciplinary workforce by ensuring
that undergraduate, pre-doctoral, and postdoctoral students receive the
didactic and research experiences necessary to lead and/or engage in
integrative and team approaches to solve complex biomedical and health
problems. To accomplish this aim, the National Institutes of Health
invites applications for developing and implementing novel training
programs focused on new interdisciplinary science. This solicitation
has several unique features: (1) undergraduate students may be supported
in these programs; (2) support is not limited to US citizen and
permanent residents; and (3) support is provided for to 10% faculty
release time for course or curriculum development. Additional
information about this program, including application criteria and
guidelines, can be found in the announcement which can be accessed at
<URL Redacted>.
Applications for this RFA are due to the NIH by March 10, 2004.
