Eligibility for this grant is for US citizens and Permanent Residents. There are different requirements for the K22 program based on the institute that you are applying to. Please read the K22 information carefully.
Non-NIH Funding Opportunities
There are many organizations that will fund research for intramural fellows. The Office of Intramural Training & Education has compiled a list of those we know will accept (and will not accept) applications from NIH trainees. In each case, please read the eligibility carefully, especially since funders can change their requirements. If you have questions about eligibility, please check with Sharon Soucek, Ph.D.
