NIH K Awards

In this lab you will be downloading your actual NIH K Series application and completing some of the administrative sections. You will also be downloading and completing required Stanford-specific internal documents. Research Process Managers (RPM) from the Research Management Group (RMG) will be on hand to assist  you with your actual application.

Grants.gov K Award computer lab sessions will be offered for those individuals who are submitting applications for the next standard K Career Development Award deadline and the next standard resubmission deadline. They are required training for all postdoctoral fellows and optional for instructors and faculty who are submitting NIH K series applications.
