Although research training had been supported by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) since 1930, funds were now to be targeted at training investigators (as opposed to health professionals) and channeled explicitly to those fields in which there was an identified need for biomedical and behavioral research personnel.

Chapter 3: Early Career Outcomes of NRSA Predoctoral Training in the Biomedical Sciences

This chapter chronicles the early careers of NRSA predoctoral recipients in the biomedical sciences, contrasting them with those of their Ph.D. counterparts who did not receive such support. The outcomes examined range from the time required to earn the doctorate to the number of publications authored and citations received by 1995. Of interest are those Ph.D.s who earned their degrees between ...

Chapter 2: The NRSA Study and Comparison Groups: Characteristics and Training

Assessing the career progress of NRSA predoctoral trainees and fellows requires that three questions be initially asked. First, what do we know about their training (e.g., length of support, field, and quality), and is it consistent with the goals of the NRSA programs? Second, did this training differ from that of individuals who did not receive these traineeships and fellowships? And third, di...

Early Career Outcomes of NRSA Predoctoral Training in the Behavioral Sciences

This chapter profiles the early career outcomes of former NRSA predoctoral trainees and fellows in the behavioral sciences. It represents the first formal assessment of this group in nearly two decades. Although some limited tracking of behavioral sciences trainees and fellows has been conducted (e.g., Alcohol, Drug Abuse, and Mental Health Administration, 1986; Clouet, 1986; National Research ...
