Frequently Asked Questions

1. Is the K25 Award appropriate for an individual who is still in a postdoctoral position?
It is intended for research-oriented investigators from the postdoctoral level to the level of senior faculty.

2. I am conducting research using database and tool integration for large-scale analysis of genomic/proteomic data including microarray data. Does this research fit into NCI's requirements for the K25 Award?
If the mentor's research is cancer related and if the investigator is willing to be your mentor, then you may be eligible for the K25 Award. For details access the K25 Program Announcement, and contact the NCI Training Program (see NCI Staff Contacts).
