Abstract

The NIGMS Postdoctoral Research Associate Training (PRAT) Program's overarching goal is to provide high quality postdoctoral research training in the basic biomedical sciences, in NIH intramural research laboratories, to a group of postdoctoral fellows to prepare them for leadership positions in biomedical careers. The research projects focus on NIGMS mission-related areas of basic biomedical science. These include biological chemistry, biophysics, bioinformatics, cellular and molecular biology, developmental biology, genetics, immunology, neuroscience, pharmacology, physiology, and technology development. Studies employing a variety of research organisms are encouraged. Publications are included as part of the IR research mentor's reports. All PRAT Fellows are IRTAs.
