Visiting Investigator Program
 

The Visiting Investigator Program is designed to provide tenured or tenure-track faculty-level investigators from outside the NIH with the opportunity to spend six- to 12-months in the NHGRI laboratories, accomplishing significant research objectives. Visiting investigators can use their stay to learn new technologies, develop research collaborations, or pursue sabbatical research projects. Basic, clinical, and social scientists may access the Institute's laboratories, core facilities, and training programs for study in any area of human genetic disease, including the ethical, legal and social implications of genetic research.

The applicant must be an independent faculty investigator and have potential or demonstrated excellence in a clinical or research discipline. The applicant must be a citizen of the United States or have been lawfully admitted to the United States for permanent residence. Applications from foreign scientists will be accepted on a limited basis. Women and minority candidates are strongly encouraged to apply.

Partial funding of up to 50% of current salary support is available, as well as funding for research related expenses while at NIH.
