A primary goal of our program is to support the careers of young scientists. Our Career Development and Junior Faculty provide young scientists the salary and research support necessary to establish a track record of success that will allow them to get further funding from the NIH.  We have other awards that match recent doctoral candidates with outstanding senior scientists to help them get started in research, and awards that provide clinical students a year of research experience before or after graduation.  We also provide general grant support to both new and established investigators, specialized grants assisting clinical and innovative researchers, and opportunities for established investigators as they advance their careers and the field of diabetes research and care.  With all of our award programs, our goal is to make a unique contribution that will accelerate the search for the prevention and cure of diabetes and its complications.
