209 - Policy and Research Workshop. Seeking Research Funding from the National Institutes of Health (NIH)

Session Submission Type: Workshop

Description

Sociologists carry out vitally important research related to disparities in health outcomes, barriers in access to care, and the social environment in which lifestyle decisions and healthcare take place. The National Institutes of Health (NIH) fund research on these topics, but sociologists may not be familiar with NIH procedures and priorities. This session will provide guidance in identifying relevant NIH programs, different funding mechanism (Rs and Ks and all), and submitting a successful funding proposal.
