Funding Opportunities

DOE OHER

Computational Molecular Biology

Topic: Ten postdoctoral fellowships to catalyze career transitions into computational molecular biology from other scientific fields. These fellowships are funded by DOE and the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation to give young scientists an intensive 2-year postdoctoral opportunity in an appropriate molecular biology laboratory. Selections will be announced in June 1997, and funding can begin any time after September 1, 1997.

Contact: Christine Trance; Alfred P. Sloan Foundation; 630 Fifth Ave., Ste. 2550; New York, NY 10111 (212/649-1649, Fax: /757-5117, trance@sloan.org

NABIR Program

Contact: John Houghton (301/903-8288, Fax: -8519, john.houghton@oer.doe.gov)

NIH NCHGR

Genome-Analysis Technologies
RFA HG-97-001 (R01, P01, R21)

Topic: To develop novel genomic-scale technologies for the study of genome function and sequence variation. These technologies will facilitate, among other things, elucidation of the biological roles of gene products and noncoding functional elements, interactions among functional elements in the cell, biological consequences of genome organization, dynamics of polymorphisms in populations, and the functional significance of genomic variation.

Contact: Elise Feingold contact NCHGR for information.

NIH National Research Service Award Fellowships

Topic: To engage in research relevant to the Human Genome Project. Postdoctoral, senior postdoctoral, and minority predoctoral fellowships are available to U.S. citizens or permanent residents; research in ethical, legal, and social issues (ELSI) is not open to predoctoral students through this program.

Contacts: ELSI topics, Eric Meslin (301/402-4997, eric_meslin@nih.gov); all other topics, Bettie Graham ( at NCHGR)
