Grant-writing workshops

Students are encouraged to apply for outside funding for their MD-PhD work, either through private agencies or the NIH. Students who are successful in obtaining individual fellowships may be considered for a combined award (i.e. bonus) to their stipend.

Grant-writing workshops are given three times per year, coinciding with the NIH F30/31 NRSA Fellowship Application deadlines. In addition to the general instructions and guidelines presented in the workshop, faculty and staff are available to work closely with you on specific parts of your proposal. All external fellowships and their accompanying administrative requirements are processed through the MD-PhD Program.
