National Institute of Health, DHHS Research Career Development Programs in Emergency Medicine Research (K12s) The National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) funded six institutional research career development (K12) awards to promote multidisciplinary clinical research training programs in Emergency Medicine (EM). These programs will prepare clinician-scientists for independent research careers and academic leadership roles in EM. Each program will provide comprehensive research training to evaluate innovative approaches in the diagnosis and clinical management of patients with acute, life-threatening manifestations of cardiovascular, pulmonary, hematologic and trauma-related diseases in emergency department settings. The goal of this program is to promote the growth of strong, competitive clinical EM and Pediatric EM investigators. Components of the programs include 1) Didactic training in clinical research and 2) a mentored research experience, with a training period of two or three years. Scholars will meet the standards for an academic appointment in the school of medicine. Although their research interests must focus on Emergency Medicine, scholars may come from a variety of clinical backgrounds, including Emergency Medicine, Cardiology, Pulmonary/Critical Care, Hematology, Surgery, and Pediatrics, as well as Nursing and Pharmacy. Each program is committed to training scholars from under-represented minority groups and those with disabilities. For program specific information, please contact the program directors, identified below: K12 Scholarships will begin July 1, 2012.
