Are there ARRA opportunities to support hiring laboratory staff members during the regular school year, or only during the summer months?
(New: 04/07/2009) YES; ARRA Administrative Supplements can include support for research staff including pre-doctoral students, postdoctoral students (including extending support for senior postdocs), postbaccalaureate students (recent college and master’s degree graduates), medical students in “off years” (e.g., medical, dental, veterinary, clinical psychology, nursing students) seeking extended time off for research experience, or on shorter term breaks. Additionally, NIH is prepared to make awards with Recovery Act funding under other existing programs that provide administrative supplements (such as PA-08-190; Research Supplements to Promote Diversity in Health-Related Research, and PA-08-091; Research Supplements to Promote Re-Entry into Biomedical and Behavioral Research Careers). See those specific notices for more information.
