The National Library of Medicine (NLM) invites applications
for innovative predoctoral and postdoctoral training programs that prepare the
next generation of researchers in biomedical informatics, data
science, and artificial intelligence/machine learning (AI/ML). NLM
emphasizes cutting-edge, forward-looking training experiences that equip
trainees to address complex health and biomedical challenges through advanced
computational approaches. Applications may propose the creation of new training
programs or the renewal of existing NLM-supported programs. These programs are
designed to meet the growing demand for researchers with
deep expertise in biomedical computing, data science, and AI/ML, with
clear relevance to health and biomedical research. Recognizing the inherently
interdisciplinary nature of these fields, NLM seeks programs that integrate
methods and perspectives across disciplines to advance
biomedical informatics, data science, and AI/ML.



Budgets: Application budgets are limited to $775K in direct
costs, but the requested budget must reflect the actual needs of the proposed
project.



Trainees: Applicants proposing training may request NLM
funding for up to a total of 10 trainees, including up to 3 postdoctoral
fellows.
