The National Institutes of Health (NIH), a part of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, is the nation’s medical research agency — making important discoveries that improve health and save lives.
The NIH Research Education Program (R25) aims to support educational activities that complement and/or enhance the training of a workforce to meet the nation's biomedical, behavioral, and clinical research needs. This encompasses a broad goal aimed at fostering the development of a well-trained research workforce, specifically in the areas specified within the NIH mission.
