The NIH offers two major postdoctoral research training programs. Postdoctoral Intramural Research Training Awards (IRTAs) [Cancer Research Training Awards (CRTAs) for research carried out in the National Cancer Institute] support U.S. citizens and permanent residents. International scholars are appointed as Visiting Fellows (VFs). Other postdoctoral programs at the NIH include the National Research Council NIH (NIBIB)/NIST Joint Postdoctoral Associateship Program and the Pharmacology Research Associate Program (PRAT) housed in the National Institute for General Medical Sciences.
