Part 1. Qualify for NIH Funding
Before you contemplate applying for funding, see if and how you may fit in at NIH. First, assess whether your area of science falls within NIH's mission. If it does, determine what type of support you may qualify for since NIH has many types of awards for scientists at different career levels with different research needs.
In this part, you can also learn about qualifying for an independent grant, view options at earlier career stages, get the scoop on NIH's "new investigator" status, and see how to qualify as an investigator or organization working outside the U.S.
