The following National Institutes of Health (NIH) Ruth L. Kirschstein National Research Service Award (NRSA) T32, Clinical and Translational Science Award (CTSA) TL1, and Roadmap T90 institutional research training grants currently are active at Northwestern University. These grants provide support for training predoctoral students (PhD or combined doctoral degree (e.g., MD/PhD)), and/or postdoctoral scholars in exciting, important areas of biomedical, life sciences and behavioral research. Trainee appointments must meet the citizenship requirements set by the NIH (http://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/pa-files/PA-08-226.html), be mentored by a faculty mentor/preceptor participating in the training program, and be chosen through the individual training program's selection process.
