Description
The National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD) administers this NIH K01 award for promising postdoctoral Au.D./Ph.D. audiologists. It supports comprehensive research and career development in biomedical, behavioral, or clinical sciences relevant to NIDCD’s mission. An integrated research and training program, guided by experienced mentors, should prepare recipients to become independent investigators competitive for research project funding such as an R01.
This clinical-trial-required opportunity supports candidates serving as lead investigators of an independent clinical trial, a clinical trial feasibility study, or a separate ancillary clinical trial. Candidates not planning an independent trial, including those seeking experience in another investigator’s trial, must use companion opportunities PAR-24-150 or PAR-24-159.
