Abstract :
Recently, the U.S. National Institutes of Health (NIH) expanded its efforts to promote biomedical research among young researchers through changes to the R01 grant process. These newest incentives specifically target early stage investigators (ESIs), that is, those investigators who are within ten years of their terminal research degree or medical residency completion.
