NIH F31/F30 Workshop Series Registration Closes Next Monday!

The Purdue Institute for Cancer Research and Office of the Vice Provost for Graduate Students and Postdoctoral Scholars (OGSPS) are launching a writing-intensive NIH F31/F30 Award Workshop for PhD students or MD/PhD students interested in applying for F31 or F30 awards. Four out of the ten students who completed this workshop series in the past were awarded the fellowship. This year, we extend the workshop to MD/PhD students interested in F30 awards and hope to help more students in their grant applications and achieve their career goals in health-related research.

Why apply for the F31 award?

What will the workshop series cover, and when and where does it meet?

The workshop will provide one introductory lecture and 5 main lectures covering different sections of the application. Each main lecture will be followed by a Q&A session. Participants will have a complete ready-for-submission application at the end of the workshop.
The workshop will run from September 23, 2024 to February 10, 2025, aiming for the submission deadline of April 8, 2025.
Lectures and accompanying Q&A sessions will be on Mondays from 10-11 am at Peirce Hall (PRCE) 277.
