Colleagues,
The NIH Director’s Pioneer Award Program complements NIH's traditional, investigator-initiated grant programs by supporting individual scientists of exceptional creativity who propose pioneering and possibly transforming approaches to addressing major biomedical or behavioral challenges.
To be considered pioneering, the proposed research must reflect ideas substantially different from those already being pursued in the investigator’s laboratory or elsewhere ... The NIH Director’s Pioneer Award Program is a High-Risk Research initiative of Research Teams of the Future.
... NIH intends to commit approximately $6 million for at least 7 awards in fiscal year 2010 ... Awards will be for up to $500,000 ... Opening Date: September 20, 2009 (Earliest date an application may be submitted to Grants.gov), Application Due Date(s): October 20, 2009...
ENJOY!
