- Monday, July 23, 2012 The Searle Scholars Program supports the independent research of exceptional young faculty in the biomedical sciences and chemistry at selected academic institutions. Applicants should be pursuing independent research careers in biochemistry, cell biology, genetics, immunology, neuroscience, pharmacology, and related areas in chemistry, medicine, and the biological sciences and must have started their first appointment as an assistant professor on a tenure track on or after July 1, 2011. This award is not intended to support purely clinical research but has funded research programs that include both clinical and basic components. Funding is $300,000 for three years, with $100,000
paid each year pending acceptance of an annual progress report. Up to
25 percent of an individual's salary may be charged to the grant, together
with allowable fringe benefits. (The Scholar's salary plus benefits
charged to the grant must not exceed $25,000.) For further details about
the program and its guidelines, please see: http://www.searlescholars.net.
Applicants can expect to receive an e-mail confirmation of receipt within 48 hours. If you do not receive such an acknowledgement, please contact Mike Alexander at: (410) 516-8734. Final applications must be received by the Searle Scholars Program via an online process by Friday, September 28, 2012.
Internal deadline: 5 p.m. - Monday, July 30, 2012 The Pew Scholars Program in the Biomedical Sciences supports the independent research conducted by young investigators of outstanding promise in sciences relevant to the advancement of human health. The Pew Charitable Trusts especially encourages proposals that are creative, innovative, and risk-taking. Applicants must hold a doctorate in medicine or the biomedical sciences and have started an appointment as assistant professor by November 1, 2012, but not have held this appointment for more than three years as of July 1, 2013. (Time spent at more than one institution and in clinical internships, residencies, or work toward board certification does not count.) The award of $240,000 ($60,000 each year for a period of four years) may be used for personnel, equipment, supplies, or travel. However, no more than $10,000 a year may be used for the Scholar's salary, including fringe benefits. Overhead is limited to eight (8) percent of the total award. Note: Pew Scholars cannot concurrently be supported by similar private foundation awards in excess of $50,000 a year during the first two years of the Pew program. (Funding from the NIH and other government sources and grants from non-profit associations do not pose a conflict.) Johns Hopkins can nominate only one (1) candidate for this award. Previous candidates who have not been selected may apply for this year's award providing they meet the current criteria. For more specific information about the program, please see: http://www.pewtrusts.org/our_work_category.aspx?id=194.
