April 1, 2011: Next Application Deadline for INVEST Drug Abuse Research Fellowships
Are you interested in becoming part of an international network of scientists dedicated to exchanging information and collaborating on drug abuse research? Consider applying for an INVEST Drug Abuse Research Fellowship or sharing information on this valuable professional development opportunity with your colleagues.
The INVEST Drug Abuse Research Fellowship combines postdoctoral research training in the United States with professional development activities such as grant-writing guidance to form a unique program for drug abuse scientists. Fellows may conduct their research in any aspect of the biomedical or behavioral sciences related to the causes, consequences, prevention, or treatment of drug abuse and addiction. Applicants must identify a National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) grantee who is willing to serve as their mentor and write a detailed research plan for working with that mentor. Former fellows and their U.S. mentors are part of a network of international scientists who exchange information and collaborate on drug abuse research nationally, regionally, and globally.
The 12-Month Fellowship Provides:
Rigorous postdoctoral research training with a NIDA grantee at a U.S. institution.
Professional development activities that help researchers establish personal relationships with NIDA grantees and NIDA officials who are willing to continue working with fellows after they return home.
A stipend of $39,000US for living and personal expenses, round-trip travel, and a $6,000US allowance to cover the cost of health insurance and professional development activities.
To Be Eligible, an Applicant Must:
Have earned a doctoral degree in medicine, public health, or biomedical, behavioral, or social sciences.
Have completed a minimum of 2 years of postdoctoral research experience, with a demonstrated ability to engage in independent research.
Provide written assurance from the applicant’s home-country institution that there is a position to which the applicant can return after completing the fellowship.
Demonstrate proficiency in written and spoken English.
