Does MARC support graduate work in all academic fields?
A. MARC awards support training in fields of study that directly prepare students for careers in biomedical research. Such fields of study include: biology, chemistry, cell and molecular biology, genetics, biophysics, mathematics, pharmacology, biorelated chemistry, biochemistry, some parts of psychology and sociology, and bioengineering (but not other fields of engineering). Some individuals may choose to focus on biomedical aspects of a field whose relevance to biomedical research may not be immediately apparent. Information about this relevance should be included in the grant application.
