This document is a full announcement for the NHLBI Career Transition Award for Intramural Postdoctoral Fellows and Research Trainees (K22 Clinical Trial Required) federal grant opportunity.

The purpose of this K22 grant is to provide highly qualified postdoctoral fellows in the NHLBI Division of Intramural Research the opportunity to transition their research programs as new investigators to extramural institutions. The grant will support two phases of research: a mentored intramural phase of up to two years and an extramural phase of three years, for a total of five years of combined support. Transition from the intramural to extramural phase is not automatic and will be based on the success of the awardee's research program during the mentored phase. Eligible applicant types include independent school districts, higher education institutions, state governments, small businesses, nonprofits, and others. The grant opportunity is associated with several NHLBI research programs including Lung Diseases Research, Cardiovascular Diseases Research, and Translation and Implementation Science Research. The funding agency is the Department of Health and Human Services' National Institutes of Health.
