What this means for your lab

This funds a student's stipend and training, not equipment. Its value is relationship-level: a named F31 fellow and their sponsoring lab is a signal of an active, funded research group, not a purchasing decision on its own.

Who can apply

Open to PhD students. Enrolled PhD or research-doctoral students in biomedical, behavioral, or clinical science programs at eligible US institutions. Must be a US citizen, national, or permanent resident by the time of award.
