  1. Selected Federal Opportunities • NSF • ENGINEERING DIRECTORATE • EDUCATION AND HUMAN RESOURCES • Other Directorates • NIBIB • Had workshop September 2002 • Has hired a person in charge of training • Other NIH Institutes; NIH BRP

  2. NSF Key Opportunities For Entrepreneurial Training integration of research and education • Trans-NSF • GOALI – Grant Opp. For Academic Liaison with Industry • A funding mechanism available throughout individual NSF Programs. • IGERT- Integrative Graduate Education and Research Training • ENGINEERING • GOALI • ERC- Engineering Research Centers (supports VaNTH ERC) • IUCRC • Joint/Interagency programs with NIH/NIBIB • EHR Directorate– many opportunities…

  3. NSF EHR Directorate • Math and Science Partnerships (MSP) • Centers for Learning and Teaching (CLT) • Just out: Advanced Technological Education http://www.nsf.gov/cgi-bin/getpub?nsf03523 • Other

  4. NIH-NSFBioengineering and Bioinformatics Summer Institutes (BBSI) • Joint Program between • NIH (NIBIB; NHGRI) and • NSF (ENG, CISE, BIO, MPS,EHR) • Four-Year Program • 2 consecutive summers • UG and First Year Grads. • 9 Awards in 2002 • May repeat in 2004

  5. NIBIB 2002 Training Workshop Recommendations • Provide programs for • institutional and individual training support • Pre-and post-doctoral; emphasize pre-doctoral • Use current or modified NIH mechanisms • Stimulate inter-disciplinary, thematic programs. • Allow: faculty salaries, curriculum development, materials, methods development and assessment, and infrastructure

  6. NIBIB 2002 Training Workshop Recommendations (cont’d) • Develop NIBIB (and possibly interagency) programs to support: • Pre-undergraduate and undergraduate programs aimed at attracting quantitative science students to BME and BMI careers. • Junior graduate student fellowships. • New faculty research awards for young, untenured faculty.

  7. NIBIB 2002 Training Workshop Recommendations (cont’d) • Develop institutional trans-disciplinary training opportunity • Allow flexibility for the principal institution to encourage and support horizontal (inter-departmental) and vertical (various stages of career development) integration

  8. NIBIB 2002 Training Workshop Recommendations (cont’d) • Support “centers of training excellence” that are multi-institutional and inter-departmental. • Interface the clinical sciences, basic sciences, and industry in future NIBIB training initiatives. • Support short-term faculty and student training courses on high-tech and new instrumentation.
