Applicants must be independent, self-directed researchers or clinician scientists, and their institution must provide space and other resources customary for independent investigators. The application must convey the commitment of the institution to the applicant and the proposed research activities.

Applicants must be working at a US academic institution or eligible non-profit; were first appointed as independent, full-time faculty less than 10 years ago; and are the PI on no more than 1 R01 or R01-equivalent grant at the time of application. The deadlines are April 1 and October 15. Please visit the award's website for more information and the complete application process.
