An individual fellowship is awarded to an institution to support an individual predoctoral (F31) or postdoctoral (F32) student. The student applicant completes and submits an application to NIH, including a cover letter requesting assignment to NINR. The applicant should work with her/his research mentor in preparing the application to insure that the mentor has approved the project and their mentor role on the traineeship. An institutional research training grant (T32) enables schools of nursing with research programs to provide full-time predoctoral and postdoctoral research training. The institution with the training program grant selects the trainees to be appointed. See the T32 or training web page within the institution website for contact or application information. These applications are not sent to NIH but to the specific T32 program of interest.
