Through this program, investigators can: • Receive independent research funding early to start and sustain strong research careers. • Explore new, unique research areas in the NIGMS mission. • Take on ambitious, creative projects. • Shift focus to include emerging techniques and technologies as needed. • Devote more time to mentoring trainees in a stable research environment.
