Title Clinical Scientist Development Award Agencies Doris Duke Charitable Trust (Duke) Description The award provides grants to junior physician-scientists to facilitate their transition to independent clinical research careers. The transition to an independent research career is often more difficult for physician-scientists conducting clinical research than it is for other researchers, as these individuals must balance both the demands of seeing patients with those of conducting research. The Medical Research Program created the award to provide support to physician-scientists during this critical stage of career development. More Information http://www.ddcf.org/page.asp?pageId=291 Submission Limits Each U.S. accredited, degree-granting institution, which would encompass for that institution all affiliated graduate school, related hospitals and research institutes, may nominate up to two candidates. Different divisions, departments, hospitals, centers, or schools of the same degree-granting institution should confer to submit one slate of nominees.

	Notice of Intent Deadline of Oct 15, 2009 Has Passed
Title Developing Research Capacity in Africa for Studies on HIV-Associated Malignancies (D43) Agencies National Institutes of Health (NIH) Description The purpose of this Funding Opportunity announcement (FOA) is to strengthen research capacity in HIV-associated malignancies in sub-Saharan Africa. Under this FOA, the National Cancer Institute (NCI) in collaboration with the Fogarty International Center (FIC) solicits applications for strategic, collaborative cancer research training programs based on partnerships between U.S. and African researchers. These training programs are expected to build multidisciplinary research teams of African investigators, including physicians, other clinical scientists, basic research scientists, epidemiologists, pathologists, data managers and other required personnel. It is anticipated that the creation of these teams will strategically enhance the capacity for innovative research in HIV-associated malignancies at institutions in Africa. As a long-term goal (beyond the scope of this FOA), the NCI envisions that the training programs will allow African teams of scientists to become fully efficient and productive as partners with investigators from developed countries in future research endeavors oriented on HIV-associated malignancies in sub-Saharan Africa. In line with this goal, research training programs proposed in response to this FOA must be strongly oriented on facilitating future hypothesis driven studies in HIV-associated malignancies that could compete for support from other funding sources. Specific areas of research for which a training program may be proposed may include, but are not limited to, - translational studies that define inherent mechanisms in HIV-associated cancers; - epidemiology of HIV-associated cancers; - pathology and diagnosis that will help classify and define disease entities; - prevention and screening approaches applicable to reducing cancer burden in HIV-infected populations in Africa; - assessment of risk factors that impact cancer in Africa in the context of HIV infection; - determination of population based cancer rates in the HIV-positive population in the context of developing policies and understanding the impact of available cART on the burden of cancer; - clinical studies to improve treatment outcomes of cancers in the HIV-positive population; - development of registry based databases to accurately track the burden of cancer attributable to HIV; - complexities of treating concurrent co-morbidities such as tuberculosis (TB) and cancer in HIV-positive persons; - impact of HIV on cancer in children and development of appropriate treatment strategies; and - identification of infectious agents that might contribute to cancer in the HIV-infected individuals. The proposed training program must include a balance of individuals with doctoral level degrees (e.g., M.D., Ph.D., D.V.M, and other doctoral degrees) and individuals with master's and bachelor's level degrees who are expected to play critical roles in future research projects in HIV-associated malignancies. In addition, individuals working towards a M.D., Ph.D or equivalent degree at an African institution may receive training if they are expected to play critical roles in future research projects. In exceptional situations, a candidate with less than bachelor degree may be selected, but each such case will have to be strongly justified and such candidate must be indispensable for the team built for the future research needs. The proposed research training programs must provide a variety of short-, medium- and long-term training opportunities that is appropriate within the context of ongoing collaborations. Among these opportunities, applicants are encouraged to explore innovative, cost effective models of training that take advantage of existing expertise in Africa and other developing countries (South-to-South collaborations) as well as available new technologies (e.g., online training). Applicants are also expected to provide support for training and mentoring for trainees to conduct research related to a specific area. Applicants are encouraged to focus on an area of research that the participating African institution(s) and/or their trainees may wish to pursue in the future. Applications must include a plan that describes the details of training options to be provided by the U.S. applicant institution along with responsibilities of the African institution(s) during the course of the three-year award. In the development of these research training plans, community context and cultural sensitivity aspects should be addressed (whenever appropriate and feasible) to enhance the local capacity to participate in the program. Each proposed research training program should address the following specific goals: - assemble comprehensive research teams in relevant research areas that address priority research questions of the given African country; - increase the expertise of the trainees of the assembled research teams; - fill gaps and strengthen the sustainability of HIV-associated malignancy research within the African institution(s); - expand and equalize collaborative scientific research interactions between the U.S. and the African institution(s); - actively work with the African institution(s) and their government officials to provide opportunities and positions for all trainees to maximize the use of the knowledge and skills they acquired during their training; - strengthen the scientific capacity of the African institution(s) so that they might successfully compete for current and future NIH and non-NIH-supported research and other grants designed for foreign institutions; and - serve as a future site in sub-Saharan Africa for research training in HIV-associated malignancies. More Information http://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/rfa-files/RFA-CA-09-016.html Submission Limits Only one application per U.S. applicant academic institution will be allowed. However, if appropriate, an African institution may participate in multiple applications submitted by different U.S. institutions.
