  1. NIH F-31 Application Ruth L. Kirschstein National Research Service Awards for Individual Predoctoral Fellowships to Promote Diversity in Health-Related Research http://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/pa-files/PA-11-112.html

  2. NIH F-31 Application – PA-11-112 Overall goal: To help ensure that a diverse pool of highly trained scientists is available in appropriate scientific disciplines to address the Nation's biomedical, behavioral, health services and clinical sciences research needs. Duration: Up to five years of support for research training leading to a PhD degree; or six years for combined MD/PhD degree Research Training Activities: • Biomedical • Behavioral • Health services • Clinical or Social sciences Awards: • Cost of stipends as subsistence allowances for living expenses during training • Research supplies, tuition, fees, certain types of travel (scientific meetings), health insurance, administrative costs related to training • Does not cover: transportation expenses (i.e. to/from residence to institution)

  5. NIH F-31 Application – PA-11-112 Eligible Individuals (Principal Director/Principle Investigator): • Any applicant fellow with the skills, knowledge, and resources necessary to carry out the proposed research as the Project Director/Principal Investigator (PD/PI) is invited to work with his/her sponsor and organization 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 NIH support. • Multiple Principal Investigators are not allowed. • By the time of award, the individual must be a citizen or a non-citizen national of the United States or have been lawfully admitted for permanent residence (i.e., possess a currently valid Permanent Resident Card USCIS Form I-551, or other legal verification of such status).

  6. NIH F-31 Application – PA-11-112 • For the purpose of this announcement, institutions are encouraged to identify Fellowship Applicants who will increase diversity on a national or institutional basis. As indicated in Section I, the NIH is particularly interested in encouraging the recruitment and retention of the following classes of candidates: • A. Individuals from racial and ethnic groups that have been shown by the National Science Foundation to be underrepresented in health-related sciences on a national basis (see data at http://www.nsf.gov/statistics/showpub.cfm?TopID=2&SubID=27 and the report Women, Minorities, and Persons with Disabilities in Science and Engineering, 2007, p. 262). The following racial and ethnic groups have been shown to be underrepresented in biomedical research: African Americans, Hispanic Americans, American Indians, Alaska Natives, Native Hawaiians, and other Pacific Islanders. In addition, it is recognized that under-representation can vary from setting to setting and individuals from racial or ethnic groups that can be convincingly demonstrated to be underrepresented by the grantee institution are eligible for support under this program. • B. Individuals with disabilities, who are defined as those with a physical or mental impairment that substantially limits one or more major life activities. • C. Individuals from disadvantaged backgrounds, who are defined as: • 1. Individuals who come from a family with an annual income below established low-income thresholds. These thresholds are based on family size. • 2. Individuals who come from a social, cultural, or educational environment such as that found in certain rural or inner-city environments that have demonstrably and recently directly inhibited the individual from obtaining the knowledge, skills, and abilities necessary to develop and participate in a research career. • Eligibility related to a disadvantaged background (C1 and C2) is most applicable to high school and perhaps to undergraduate candidates, but would be more difficult to justify for individuals beyond that level of academic achievement. Under extraordinary circumstances the PHS may, at its discretion, consider an individual beyond the undergraduate level to be from a disadvantaged background. Such decisions will be made on a case-by-case basis, based on appropriate documentation
