This grant opportunity aims to support the career development of individuals with clinical doctoral degrees, particularly those from nationally underrepresented backgrounds, who are committed to careers in basic biomedical, behavioral, or translational cancer research, including research on cancer health disparities. The program provides protected time and support for an intensive, supervised research training experience to help awardees develop enhanced research capabilities and prepare them to compete for future research project grants (e.g., R03, R21, or R01).
The award provides funding to a wide range of eligible applicants, including higher education institutions, nonprofits, government entities, and small businesses. The application deadline for this opportunity is March 6, 2025.

Update #1 ·
The purpose of the NCI Mentored Clinical Scientist Career Development Award (K08) program is to prepare individuals for careers that have a significant impact on the health-related research needs of the nation. This program represents the continuation of a long-standing NIH program that provides support and protected time to individuals with a clinical doctoral degree for an intensive, supervised research career development experience in the fields of biomedical and behavioral research, including translational research. The NCI-sponsored K08 award is specifically designed to promote career development of clinical scientists from backgrounds that have been shown to be nationally underrepresented in health-related science and for those who are committed to a career in basic biomedical, behavioral or translational cancer research, including research on cancer health disparities. The expectation is that through this sustained period of research career development and training, awardees will develop enhanced research capabilities for cancer research careers and be better prepared to compete for research project grants (e.g. R03, R21, or R01) funding.
