Each year, some 1,600 research scientists benefit from the more than $70 million NIH invests in their careers through the extramural LRPs. The extramural LRPs include Clinical Research, Pediatric Research, Health Disparities Research, Contraception and Infertility Research, and Clinical Research for Individuals from Disadvantaged Backgrounds.   BENEFITS: New LRP contracts are awarded for a two-year period and repay up to $35,000 of qualified educational debt each year. Tax offsets also are provided as an additional benefit. Participants may apply for competitive renewals, which are issued for one or two years. Undergraduate, graduate, medical school, and other health professional school loans qualify for repayment. An NIH grant or other NIH funding is not required to apply for or participate in the LRPs.   ELIGIBILITY: Applicants must possess a doctoral-level degree (with the exception of the Contraception and Infertility Research LRP); be a U.S. citizen, national, or permanent resident; devote 20 hours or more per week to conducting qualified research funded by a university, nonprofit organization, or federal, state, or local government entity; and have qualified educational loan debt equal to or exceeding 20 percent of their institutional base salary. QUESTIONS? Visit the LRP website at www.lrp.nih.gov for more information and to access the online application. For additional assistance, call or e-mail the LRP Information Center at (866) 849-4047 or lrp@nih.gov.]]></description><author>Rick Francis@utoledo.edu</author><category>Sponsor Deadline!</category><pubDate>Tue, 01 Dec 2009 13:00:00 GMT</pubDate><link>http://calendar.utoledo.edu//EventDetails.aspx?data=Nghe9Mdf%2b6q6W0BpS55e0NFIBvB5cX542A75vk9BlOQD%2fYR7929Rlg%3d%3d</link><guid>http://calendar.utoledo.edu//EventDetails.aspx?data=Nghe9Mdf%2b6q6W0BpS55e0NFIBvB5cX542A75vk9BlOQD%2fYR7929Rlg%3d%3d</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Early HIV Immune Response: Systems Biology Approach]]></title><description><![CDATA[The National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases invites P01 program project grant applications for the Dissecting the Early HIV Immune Response: A Systems Biology Approach program.

The R03 grant mechanism supports different types of projects including pilot and feasibility studies; secondary analysis of existing data; small, self-contained research projects; development of research methodology; and development of new research technology. R21 grants may involve considerable risk but may lead to a breakthrough in a particular area, or to the development of novel techniques, agents, methodologies, models, or applications that could have a major impact on a field of biomedical, behavioral, or clinical research. Eligibility is unrestricted for both. Standard submission dates apply. More information regarding PAR-09-163 (R03 grants) is available at: http://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/pa-files/PA-09-163.html.

This portfolio of programs seek to increase the number of students successfully completing quality degree programs in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM).  Particular emphasis is placed on transforming STEM education through innovative academic strategies and experiences in support of groups that historically have been underrepresented in STEM disciplines:  African-Americans, Alaskan Natives, Native Americans, Hispanic Americans, and Native Pacific Islanders.Managed synergistically, the ABP cluster enables seamless transitions from the STEM baccalaureate to attainment of the doctorate and entry to the STEM professoriate.  ABP support begins at the baccalaureate level through the LSAMP program.  LSAMP emphasizes development of broad based regional and national alliances of academic institutions, school districts, state and local governments, and the private sector to increase the diversity and quality of the STEM workforce.  Eligible LSAMP undergraduate students may receive continued support for up to two additional years of STEM graduate study through the Bridge to the Doctorate (BD) Activity.  The Bridge to the Doctorate provides significant financial support for matriculating candidates in STEM graduate programs at eligible alliance sites.Alliances for Graduate Education and the Professoriate (AGEP) furthers the graduate education of underrepresented STEM students through the doctorate level, preparing them for fulfilling opportunities and productive careers as STEM faculty and research professionals.  AGEP also supports the transformation of institutional culture to attract and retain STEM doctoral students into the professorate.LSAMP and LSAMP-BD:  Only one proposal per alliance.  Only one educational research proposal will be accepted per alliance.  Partner institutions must coordinate submissions with their lead institution. http://www.nsf.gov/pubs/2009/nsf09515/nsf09515.htm]]></description><author>rick.francis@utoledo.edu</author><category>Sponsor Deadline!</category><pubDate>Fri, 19 Feb 2010 13:00:00 GMT</pubDate><link>http://calendar.utoledo.edu//EventDetails.aspx?data=Nghe9Mdf%2b6rjwqbR5ADwIfYivgmFAZdAuLIGh7IUF4Kif3CIMy9P%2bw%3d%3d</link><guid>http://calendar.utoledo.edu//EventDetails.aspx?data=Nghe9Mdf%2b6rjwqbR5ADwIfYivgmFAZdAuLIGh7IUF4Kif3CIMy9P%2bw%3d%3d</guid></item></channel></rss>
