NIGMS TWD will consider providing up to one-year interim funding to a T34 (MARC U-STAR) program that encounters a lapse in funding due to an unsuccessful renewal application (A0). This is done to provide support for the trainees who are currently in their final year on the program and to sustain the program while an amended application is submitted. To be eligible, the grant must be active. An award that has ended or is not in an active no-cost extension period is NOT eligible for the supplement. Also, a resubmitted renewal application (A1) is not eligible for interim funding.
Interim funding is limited to support of student trainees continuing in the program and, when strongly justified, a minimal amount for training-related activities. All applications are considered on a case-by-case basis. In making funding recommendations, only the applications that meet the following criteria are considered:
Requests for interim funding must be submitted to NIGMS staff by the institution’s Authorized Organization Representative and should include:
