Ruth L. Kirschstein National Research Service Award (NRSA) Individual Fellowship for Students at Institutions Without NIH-Funded Institutional Predoctoral Dual-Degree Training Programs (Parent F30)

This grant funds individual fellowships for students pursuing dual-degree training programs at institutions that do not receive NIH funding.

About this program

The Ruth L. Kirschstein National Research Service Award (NRSA) Individual Fellowship is designed to support students who are enrolled in institutions that lack NIH-funded predoctoral dual-degree training programs. This fellowship aims to enhance the training of students in research and clinical practice, providing them with the necessary resources to advance their education and career in biomedical research. The program is particularly beneficial for those who are committed to pursuing a career in health-related research and who require financial assistance to complete their studies. Eligible applicants are typically graduate students who are enrolled in a dual-degree program that combines research training with clinical education. The fellowship provides funding to cover tuition, fees, and a stipend for living expenses, allowing students to focus on their research and academic pursuits without the burden of financial constraints. This initiative not only supports individual students but also aims to strengthen the overall research capacity of institutions that may not have access to NIH funding.

Eligibility

Graduate students enrolled in dual-degree programs at institutions without NIH funding.
