The HDRI aims to support the research career development of promising early-career minority health/health disparities research scientists, and stimulate research in the disciplines supported by health disparities science. Applications will only be accepted from individuals who meet NIH’s early-stage investigator (ESI) eligibility criteria.<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__grants.nih.gov_policy_early-2Dinvestigators_index.htm-23dis&d=DwMFaQ&c=LsLxleeqPm1pgCNn-PN_bQ&r=fKhwRL6HWCNgfU4M0NR4WjfKeTRhi_pL7cVA8BENtAk&m=KlOvr0wutOxw1dYNsa8vxcXw5ppfmUCLn6HmDJsU2QY&s=1B6hUwevoBkR0ERtnbdEywGEn6QCxyzAqd5_aFKlYtg&e=>

Program Content

The program will feature lectures on minority health and health disparities research, small group discussions, mock grant review, and seminars. Institute participants will have the opportunity to meet with NIH scientific staff engaged in related health disparities research across the various NIH Institutes and Centers.

Lecture and seminar topics will focus on the etiology of health disparities, methods and measurement, and intervention and implementation research. Participants will receive consultation on developing a research interest into an application – R21, R01, K award - and preparing research strategies and methodologies for proposed studies.

Target Audience/Eligibility

This program is intended for early-stage research investigators<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__grants.nih.gov_policy_early-2Dinvestigators_index.htm-23dis&d=DwMFaQ&c=LsLxleeqPm1pgCNn-PN_bQ&r=fKhwRL6HWCNgfU4M0NR4WjfKeTRhi_pL7cVA8BENtAk&m=KlOvr0wutOxw1dYNsa8vxcXw5ppfmUCLn6HmDJsU2QY&s=1B6hUwevoBkR0ERtnbdEywGEn6QCxyzAqd5_aFKlYtg&e=> who have completed their terminal degree or post-graduate clinical training within the past 10 years. Additionally, applicants must have either a Ph.D., M.D./D.O., Sc.D., Dr. P.H., Pharm.D., Psy.D., D.D.S./D.M.D. or equivalent doctoral degree from an accredited domestic or foreign institution. Applications will only be accepted from post-doctoral fellows, assistant professors, or early-stage investigators in comparable research positions. Further, applications will only be accepted from individuals who are planning to submit a K or R grant to NIH within the next 12 months. Individuals from diverse backgrounds are encouraged to apply.

Previous participants of the HDRI or the Translational Health Disparities Course are not eligible to apply. Similarly, NIH and HHS staff, including persons doing fellowships/training at NIH or an HHS agency, are not eligible to apply.
