Candidates are strongly encouraged to include in their application: 1) a description of the mentor’s research describing how it relates to his or her proposed research and career development plans, and 2) details of potential overlap and synergism. It is reassuring to reviewers if this issue is addressed directly in a letter from the mentor.
