Register for SUNY’s NRSA Proposal Development Webinar
The next NIH Ruth L. Kirschstein National Research Service Award (NRSA) deadline is April 8, 2022. Receiving this nationally prominent award to support biomedical research is an excellent addition to your resume, regardless of what direction your career takes you.
To assist you, SUNY has created a NRSA award slide deck and training video developed and presented by Dr. Miguel Garcia-Diaz, Associate Professor of Pharmacology and Director of the Molecular and Cellular Pharmacology Graduate Program at Stony Brook University.
Please register to watch the training video as a group or to participate in live Q&A webinar session on March 8, 2022 from 2:00 pm to 4:00 pm. You can watch the training video at any time and join us for the Q&A portion around 3:10 pm. This is an opportunity to ask questions, receive guidance on the application components and discuss any previous reviews you have received.
Most students apply for this award between the end of their third year and the beginning of their fourth year of training. Please talk with your advisor if you are considering applying for this award. Note that if you win one of these prestigious awards, you may be eligible for the SUNY GREAT award, an additional $5K in flexible research funds.
If you are not ready to apply in April, there are two additional NSRA application deadlines on August 8 and December 8. The video and slides will be available throughout the year, and we will schedule Q&A webinars for subsequent application cycles. Please note that the video and related materials may be useful if you apply for other awards or grants.
Support for this initiative comes from SUNY’s University Faculty Senate Graduate and Research Committee. Special thanks to Miguel Garcia-Diaz; Susan Brennan, SUNY’s Innovation in Graduate Education Research Fellow; SUNY’s Office of Research, Innovation and Economic Development; and the Research Foundation for SUNY.
