Administrative Supplements for Building Cloud-Based Learning Modules

UPDATE: The video for this webinar is now available.

We’re pleased to announce the availability of administrative supplements to develop cloud-based biomedical data science training modules (NOT-GM-24-006). The supplements are available to NIGMS awardees of the following programs:

  • Institutional Development Award (IDeA) Networks for Biomedical Research Excellence (INBRE)
  • Native American Research Centers for Health (NARCH)
  • NIGMS institutional training (T34, T32) grants
  • Research education (R25) grants that support undergraduate, graduate student, or postdoctoral trainees

The supplements will support faculty investigators to work with NIH-funded cloud software engineers. The modules should complement and have minimal overlap with the existing NIGMS Sandbox modules.

Applications are due February 15, 2024.

Principal investigators of the NIGMS grants listed above and project leads interested in applying for a supplement are strongly encouraged to attend our informational webinar and Q&A session:

Monday, December 18, 2:00-3:30 p.m. ET
