Did you know the JIN has their own funding mechanism?
Mentored Research Development Awards provide more limited support for a shorter period of time for junior investigators to focus on writing aims and developing a grant proposal. Awardees are supported by the ACCEL Professional Development Core and also attend training sessions, workshops, and networking activities for beginning scientists.
