Opportunity Summary:
The Lasker Clinical Research Scholars Program (Si2) is a National Institutes of Health (NIH) funding opportunity designed to help launch and strengthen the early independent careers of clinical researchers. The program focuses on supporting research activities during a critical transition period when a clinician-scientist is establishing independence and building a sustained line of clinical research. In practical terms, the opportunity is meant to provide resources and structured support so that promising early-career investigators can develop, lead, and expand their own research agendas rather than working primarily under senior investigators.
This opportunity was issued as a discretionary grant under Funding Opportunity Number RFA-OD-14-004, titled "Lasker Clinical Research Scholars Program (Si2)." It falls under the broad activity areas of education and health and is associated with CFDA number 93.140, described as an Intramural Research Training Award. Unlike many federal opportunities that are submitted by universities, hospitals, or other research organizations on behalf of an investigator, this program is notable because the application is submitted directly by the individual Program Director/Principal Investigator (PD/PI). The eligibility category is listed as "Others," with the key clarification that the applicant is the individual researcher rather than an institution serving as the formal applicant.
Administratively, the announcement was posted on April 24, 2014, with an original (and final) closing date of July 29, 2014, and it was archived on August 29, 2014. The funding opportunity does not require cost sharing or matching, which generally means applicants are not expected to commit institutional funds as a condition of the award. For applicants or interested parties who needed the full official announcement, NIH provided a link to the full FOA text on the NIH grants guide website. For access or technical issues, the contact point listed was the NIH Office of Extramural Research (OER) Webmaster at FBOWebmaster@OD.NIH.GOV, which is the help channel for difficulties opening or linking to the announcement online.
