Medical Scientist Training Program (MSTP) (T32) - May 2025 Deadline - PAR-24-128

Apply to Internal Competition // Limit: 1 // Tickets Available: 1 

Eligibility:
NIGMS will accept only one MSTP application per institution. 

Each application must be submitted by an eligible organization with a Unique Entity Identifier (UEI) and a unique NIH eRA Institutional Profile File (IPF) number. For organizations with multiple campuses, eligibility can be considered for an individual campus (for example, main, satellite, etc.) as the applicant organization only if a UEI and a unique NIH eRA IPF number are established for the individual campus. For organizations that use one UEI or NIH IPF number for multiple campuses, eligibility as the applicant organization is determined for the campuses together.

Purpose: 

The goal of the Medical Scientist Training Program (MSTP) is to develop a diverse pool of well-trained clinician-scientist leaders available to address the nation’s biomedical research needs. Specifically, this funding announcement provides support to eligible, domestic organizations to develop and implement effective, evidence-informed approaches to dual-degree training and mentoring that will keep pace with the rapid evolution of the biomedical research enterprise and lead to the completion of both a clinical degree (for example, M.D., D.O., D.V.M., D.D.S., Pharm.D., etc.) and a research doctorate degree (Ph.D.).  

With the dual qualifications of a rigorous scientist and clinician, graduates will be equipped with the skills to develop research programs that accelerate the translation of research advances to the understanding, detection, treatment, and prevention of human disease, and to lead the advancement of biomedical research.  Areas of particular importance to NIGMS are optimizing training efficiency, fostering the persistence of alumni in research careers, and enhancing the diversity of the clinician-scientist workforce.  NIGMS expects that the proposed research training program will incorporate didactic, research, mentoring and career development elements to prepare trainees for careers that will have a significant impact on the health-related research needs of the nation.

This Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) does not allow appointed Trainees to lead an independent clinical trial, but does allow them to obtain research experience in a clinical trial led by a mentor or co-mentor.

Limit: 1 // Tickets Available: 0 

E. Gumm (Psychiatry - COM-T)

Application Limits
You may not submit more than one application. If you submit more than one
application, we will only accept the last on-time submission.|

If an entity applies as part of a consortium, the entity is not eligible to submit a
separate, stand-alone application.


Purpose
The purpose of the Addiction Medicine Fellowship (AMF) program is to expand the
number of fellows at accredited AMF and Addiction Psychiatry Fellowship (APF)
programs trained as addiction medicine specialists who practice in medically
underserved, community-based settings that integrate primary care with mental health
disorder and substance use disorder (SUD) prevention and treatment services. The
fellowship must include training in prevention and treatment services in medically
underserved, community-based settings, including in rural areas, that do not have
access or have limited access to SUD treatment. The program includes training for both
addiction medicine and/or addiction psychiatry fellows. Its goal is to increase the
number of physicians who are board-certified specialists in addiction medicine or
addiction psychiatry who will serve in medically underserved community-based
settings, including in rural areas, once trained. The program supports training to:
 

  • Increase the number of fellows trained to practice addiction medicine and
    addiction psychiatry in rural and other medically underserved community-based
    settings.
  • Establish partnerships with clinical rotation sites in rural or other underserved
    areas, that focus on the integration of primary care with mental health and SUD
    prevention and treatment services.
  • Increase fellows’ knowledge and ability to assist their patients with referrals to
    navigate the legal and social systems related to patients’ clinical or care needs.
  • Increase awareness of the specialty and reduce provider stigma to increase the
    number of physicians interested in pursuing careers in addiction medicine and
    addiction psychiatry through the provision of clinical rotations that expose
    medical residents to practice in these specialties and through education and
    consultation.

If you are implementing Level 2 in your proposed training project, you can receive an additional 5 points in Criteria 2: Response/Approach.
