The Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) announces its interest in supporting the Mentored Research Scientist Development Award (K01) in health services research. The K01 provides specialized study support for research-trained doctorates (e.g., Ph.D., Sc.D., Dr.P.H.) who are committed to a career in health services research and have the potential to develop into independent investigators. The mission of AHRQ is to improve the quality, safety, efficiency, and effectiveness of health care for all Americans. AHRQ will provide salary and fringe benefits for the K01 recipient for a requested percentage of the candidate’s institutional salary, of up to $90,000 annually plus associated fringe benefits.
