CTSI funding opportunities
The Clinical and Translational Science Institute (CTSI) is accepting applications for the Path to K Mentored Early Career Training Grant and the K12 Mentored Career Development Grant for the 2026 funding cycle.
Programs
Path to K
The Path to K Mentored Career Development Grant funds early career investigators to conduct clinical or translational research and develop their research skills so they can prepare a competitive NIH K grant application. Eligible applicants include assistant professors from across health and biomedical science disciplines engaged in clinical or translational research or science, who have three years or less of service in that role at the time of appointment. Proposals from researchers working in pre-clinical, clinical, health implementation or health outcomes research are encouraged to apply. Letter of Intent is due Oct. 16.

K12 Mentored Early Career Training Grant
The K12 Mentored Early Career Development Grant funds early career investigators to conduct clinical or translational research and develop their research skills as they progress to become independently funded researchers. Eligible applicants are assistant professors from across health and biomedical science disciplines engaged in clinical or translational research or science, who have three years or less of service in that role at the time of appointment.

Clinical and Translational Science Research
The goal of the Clinical and Translational Science Research Program Award is to fund a highly meritorious interdisciplinary clinical and translational science (CTS) project that develops AI tools that advance health for all. Successful translational science studies can emphasize specific clinical and translational research area, but must be designed to develop or test a translational science-directed hypothesis with potential for broader application that addresses a barrier to the progression of turning observations in the laboratory, clinic and community into interventions that improve the health of individuals or the population health. Pre-application deadline is Sept. 30.
