This grant is for salary support only. The salary must be for a resident or fellow to obtain training and experience in research, under the guidance of an experienced mentor. The application must describe a structured research training plan, in addition to a research project. The applicant must demonstrate that his/her career objectives coincide with the timeline of the research fellowship and a long-term commitment to a career in research. The PI must be able to demonstrate that the proposed research project, including supplies, equipment, and other expenses, is already actively funded. Evaluation of the application will place emphasis on the research training experience, research project, applicant academic potential, and mentor qualifications and commitment to mentoring. The proposal should be written by the applicant, demonstrate good grantsmanship and clearly outline the mentoring/training experience as well as the research project. The PSF recognizes the value of and wants applicants to benefit from the grant writing process, therefore a wellwritten proposal that appears to be written by someone other than the applicant will not be considered as strongly as a less strongly written grant clearly written by the applicant. This Fellowship Award may not be held concurrently with another fellowship or similar award that provides a stipend or otherwise duplicate provisions of this Fellowship. When this award is less than the institution’s defined salary for a resident, the difference must be provided locally by the institution.
