_____________________________________________

The UC San Diego Altman Clinical and Translational Research Institute (ACTRI) is pleased to announce the 2023 call for applications for the KL2 Mentored Career Development Award!

The ACTRI KL2 award is a Mentored Career Development Award that provides up to $120,000 toward salary, plus benefits, along with $25,000 per year in research funds. Successful applicants will receive up to 3 years of support pending good progress.

The KL2 grant mechanism is an institutional equivalent of a K23, K01 or K08 awardfor early-career faculty.

See detailed RFA here: https://tinyurl.com/ACTRI-KL2<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/t.e2ma.net/click/mnicgg/utkk7j5b/27o7tu__;!!LLK065n_VXAQ!ltggg4bwBmlupzDeyjYPGVERmC5F8r1GBPZ6p5WvHKpkH6g79IHKU12BCYSBP_kb0tGKP5USDhFkB4IiQRfz9omcv58bRpIVK56t$>


The KL2 program is actively seeking applications from broad scientific backgrounds, including but not limited to engineering, computational sciences, biomedical sciences, public health, and others.

Awardees must commit to 75% research effort and the awardees' home departments must commit to honoring this 75% research effort as documented in the Chair's letter. In return, ACTRI will grant up to $120,000 towards salary, plus benefits. Practicing clinicians in certain procedurally-oriented fields such as surgery may be eligible to commit 50% research effort. Please contact us for more information about this exception for procedurally-oriented fields.


APPLICATION DEADLINE: Tuesday, August 15, 2023 at 5:00 P.M. PST

Please note that the current KL2 parent grant is approaching its final year of funding (grant end date: April 2025) and a new application is being submitted. As such, the program can only guarantee one and half years of funding at this time. If the new K grant (K12) is funded in a timely manner, KL2 scholars awarded under this RFA will be included in the subsequent K12 grant and can complete funding for the three-year training period with good progress.
