Bringing In The Research Dollars! (BiRD)

ATLANTIS pre-and post-doc trainees opportunity


Deadline: June 15, 2023 12 am

Purpose

The ATLANTIS Program is currently accepting applications from pre- and postdoctoral trainees from Emory University, Morehouse School of Medicine, and the Georgia Institute of Technology engaged in research related or relevant to nephrology, urology, and non malignant hematology. Trainees pursuing basic laboratory, clinical, translational, informatics, and outcomes research projects are all eligible for funding consideration. The ATLANTIS program will provide successful applicants with 2 years of research training support.

The program is designed to train the next generation of kidney, urology, and hematology health scientist researchers, and to establish a vibrant network of mentors, mentees, and leaders in the field. ATLANTIS predoctoral (4) and postdoctoral (6) slots provide financial support for trainee stipends as well as concurrent professional development training via an ATLANTIS Professional Development Core and collaborative and networking connections via an ATLANTIS Network Core.

Eligibility

Applicants must be U.S. citizens or permanent residents (Green Card holder) 
Pre-doctoral applicants must be enrolled in a PhD program at a participating institution. 
Postdoctoral applicants must have completed a doctoral degree (M.D., Ph.D., D.V.M., PharmD, etc) prior to entering the Program. 

Competitive candidates must pursue either basic, translational, or clinical science training with the goal of answering an important biomedical question in the field of nephrology, urology, or hematology that does not involve the study of cancer.  

The ATLANTIS Program is committed to meeting the NIH NIDDK goal to increase the participation of women and individuals from ethnic or racial groups underrepresented in research. Such groups include American Indian or Alaska native, Asian, Black or African-American, Hispanic or Latino, and Native Hawaiian or Other Pacific Islander. Applications from women and minority candidates are encouraged. In addition, accommodations will be made to assist any individuals with disabilities so those persons who are qualified applicants can complete the program.
