GRANTS ASSOCIATES PROGRAM
P.T. 44; K.W. 0901026, 0710030
Public Health Service
Scientists interested in an administrative career with Federal programs
supporting research and training in health-related fields may wish to consider
the Grants Associates Program of the U. S. Public Health Service. The program
is governed by the Grants Associates Board and is administered by the Office
of Extramural Research, Office of the Director, National Institutes of Health
(NIH).
The program prepares each Grants Associate for a responsible position in
health science administration in the Public Health Service. For a 12-month
period, the Grants Associate participates in an individually structured
training experience including on-the-job training assignments, courses and
seminars. The program provides opportunities for participation in the
development and administration of policies in Federal support of health
related research, and in the fundamentals of effective management. The
program also attempts to develop a sensitivity to the consequences of program
decisions on other Federal health programs, research institutions, and
national health needs.
Admission to this program as a full-time permanent Federal employee, is highly
competitive for the few positions available. Motivation for a career in
science administration, good interpersonal skills, and evidence of executive
potential are important. If you are a U.S. citizen and hold a doctorate or
equivalent in a discipline related to the biomedical or behavioral sciences,
have significant independent research experience beyond the doctorate and are
attracted to health science administration as a profession, you should inquire
about the Grants Associates Program. Administrative experience is not
required.
Grants Associates may be appointed either in the U.S. Civil Service at grade
levels General Schedule (GS) 12 ($33,218), GS-13 ($39,501), or GS-14 ($46,679)
or in the Commissioned Corps of the U.S. Public Health Service at ranks
beginning with senior grade (03 Lieutenant, base salary of $20,390 dependent
on prior military experience.)
The NIH does not discriminate in employment on grounds of race, color, sex,
national origin, age, or handicap. For further information, write to:

National Institute of Arthritis and Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases
The National Institute of Arthritis and Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases
(NIAMS) wishes to re-emphasize its continuing support of Senior Fellowships
(F33) to facilitate research training for experienced scientists who wish to
make major changes in the direction of their research careers and to acquire
new research capabilities.
NIAMS encourages applications from investigators in all areas of interest to
the Institute. Following are several broad, but not complete, categories of
NIAMS research interests:
l. Structure, function and physiology of connective
tissue, joints, muscle, bone, and skin
2. Metabolism of muscle, bone, and skin
3. Development and genetic diseases of connective
tissue, muscle, bone, and skin
4. Exercise physiology of the musculoskeletal system
and gait analysis
5. Rheumatic and connective tissue diseases and
disorders
6. Bone diseases and disorders
7. Muscle diseases
8. Musculoskeletal disorders
9. Skin diseases and disorders
l0. Epidemiologic research related to connective
tissue, joints, muscle, bone, and skin
Research training may be in any scientific discipline relevant to proposed
future research, such as molecular biology, biochemistry, biophysics,
molecular genetics, cell biology or immunology.

MECHANISM
Senior research training is provided as a National Research Service Award
(NRSA), subject to provisions of authorization legislation. Support is
generally for one year, at a maximal annual rate of $30,000. Sponsoring
institutions may request up to $3,000 per year to defray allowable expenses of
the awardee.
APPLICATION PROCEDURE
January l0, May l0, and September l0 are the annual receipt dates for
individual NRSA applications. Application materials and guidelines are
available from:
