About the First Award\u00a0Fellowship<\/h2>\n

The NSBRI First Award Fellowship\u00a0provides support for academically talented young scientists to conduct space-related biomedical or biotechnological research that supports the Institute’s goals.<\/p>\n

The program offers young scientists the opportunity to manage their own space-related biomedical research project while continuing to learn from an experienced faculty mentor. Participants become a part of one of NSBRI’s research teams and also receive introduction to NASA Johnson Space Center’s research facilities and program.<\/p>\n

Eligibility<\/h2>\n

The program is open to U.S. citizens, permanent residents or persons with pre-existing visas obtained through their sponsoring institutions that permit postdoctoral training for the project’s duration. Funding is for a two-year period, with an optional third year based on merit and need, and includes an allocation for health insurance.<\/p>\n

Application Process<\/h2>\n

NSBRI solicits applications to the First Award Program annually.\u00a0 Applicants must prepare proposals with the support of a mentor, and all proposals are evaluated by a peer-review panel.<\/p>\n

Note: As of October 2015, new applications are no longer being accepted for this program.<\/strong><\/p>\n
