What is a NIH Regional Seminar?
Held twice a year, the NIH Regional Seminars provide you with an opportunity to meet and hear from approximately 25 NIH policy officials, grants management and program staff representing various Institutes and/or Centers, as well as representatives from the Office for Human Research Protections, Office of Research Integrity, Loan Repayment Program (LRP), the SBIR/STTR program, and more. Under one roof and over two days, experts in NIH grants policy and process share a broad array of expertise and insight at an event you won’t find anywhere else – without coming to the NIH campus, of course! In addition, you’ll receive the most current information on submitting an application electronically and how to effectively utilize the eRA Commons. If that’s not enough, sign up for the optional eRA Computer Workshops for hands-on training by eRA experts. Who Attends? If you are an administrator or investigator new to the NIH grants process or have limited experience – then this seminar is for you.
