Opportunity Summary:
The Initiative for Maximizing Student Development (IMSD) (R25) is a National Institutes of Health (NIH) discretionary grant opportunity created under the Minority Biomedical Research Support (MBRS) Program. MBRS was established in response to a legislative mandate aimed at increasing the number of underrepresented (UR) faculty, investigators, and students participating in biomedical and behavioral research, while also expanding access to research opportunities in these fields. In practical terms, this opportunity is designed to help institutions build structured research training programs that strengthen the academic and research preparation of UR students as they move forward toward earning Ph.D. degrees in biomedical and behavioral sciences.
IMSD provides institutional training support rather than individual fellowships. The main purpose is to enable colleges and universities with research-intensive environments to create or enhance organized programs that develop students research skills, academic readiness, and overall competitiveness for doctoral study. The emphasis is on building a coherent pathway that supports students progression through key academic stages, with the end goal of increasing the number of UR students who successfully advance into and through Ph.D. programs in relevant scientific disciplines. The funding aligns with NIH interests in broadening participation in the biomedical research workforce and improving long-term representation in research careers.
This funding opportunity was issued as PAR-09-104 and falls under the grant funding instrument type (R25), within the health funding activity category. It is associated with CFDA number 93.859 (Biomedical Research and Research Training). The opportunity did not require cost sharing or matching funds, which means applicants were not expected to provide a formal institutional match as a condition of the award. Eligible applicants included public and state-controlled institutions of higher education as well as private institutions of higher education, reflecting the program focus on institutional capacity-building within higher education settings.
Key administrative dates for the announcement include a posted and created date of February 19, 2009, with an original and current closing date of January 25, 2012.
