NINDS Child Neurology Career Development Program (CNCDP) (K12 - Clinical Trial Not Allowed)

The National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) intends to continue to support the NINDS Child Neurologist Career Development Program (CNCDP) by publishing a Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) to solicit applications for continuation of that program. The goal of the program is to expand the cadre of child neurologists trained to conduct outstanding research into neurological disorders of children, taking advantage of their clinical training and expertise. This NOFO will utilize the K12 activity code. This K12 will be housed at the PD/PI's institution, but will support a national program, overseen by the PD/PI and a national advisory committee. For planning purposes, the general structure of the program will remain the same as described in the previous NOFO (RFA-NS-19-040; note that whereas the new NOFO will be closely based on the previous NOFO, it will not be identical). Both new and renewal applications are encouraged. A maximum of one national K12 program will be supported. Applications are not being solicited at this time. This Notice is being provided to allow potential applicants sufficient time to develop meaningful collaborations and responsive projects.
