In plain English
This NIH training grant funds domestic institutions of higher education (including HBCUs, Hispanic-serving institutions, and tribal colleges) to build predoctoral and postdoctoral biomedical research training programs, not individual researchers directly. Eligibility is fairly broad among institution types, but non-domestic entities and their foreign components are excluded, and the program does not support short-term-only training plans. No dollar amount is listed, and the deadline is not near-term.

About this grant
The National Institutes of Health (NIH) will award Ruth L. Kirschstein National Research Service Award (NRSA) Institutional Research Training Grants (T32) to eligible, domestic institutions to develop and/or enhance predoctoral and postdoctoral research training, including short-term research training, to help ensure that a highly trained workforce is available to meet the needs of the Nations biomedical, behavioral, and clinical research agenda. Research training programs are expected to incorporate engaging, didactic, research, and career development elements to prepare trainees for careers that will have a significant impact on the health-related research needs of the Nation. Programs proposing only short-term predoctoral research training should not apply to this announcement, but rather to the Kirschstein-NRSA Short-Term Institutional Research Training Grant Program (T35) exclusively reserved for predoctoral, short-term research training.This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) 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.
