The National Center for Minority Health and Health Disparities at the National Institutes of Health has announced the "NCMHD Disparities Research and Education Advancing Mission (DREAM) Career Transition Award (K22).

The purpose of the NCMHD DREAM Career Transition Award (K22) is to facilitate the transition of early stage investigators working in health disparities or areas that address health disparity conditions and populations from the mentored stage of career development to the independent stage of investigator-initiated health disparities research.  The program will provide an opportunity for investigators to develop solid research skills during the initial period of up to two years of study and research within the environment of the NIH Intramural Research Programs located at the NIH.  The award may also include a follow-on period of up to three years of salary and mentored research support at the candidate's current institution or organization or an academic or research grantee institution of the candidate's choice.  This period of extramural support will facilitate the transition to independence as a researcher in health disparities research.
