Notice
Number: NOT-OD-07-052
Key
Dates
Release Date: February 22, 2007
Issued
by
National Institutes of Health (NIH), (http://www.nih.gov/)
Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ), (http://www.ahrq.gov/)
Health Resources Services Administration (HRSA), (http://www.hrsa.gov/)
The
stipend levels for Fiscal Year (FY) 2007 Kirschstein-NRSA awards for
undergraduate, predoctoral and postdoctoral trainees and fellows remain
the same as in FY 2006, as shown in the table below. The new
Training Related Expenses for trainees and the Institutional Allowance
for individual fellows for FY 2007 (previously announced in NOT-OD-06-093)
are also summarized below.
The budgetary categories described in this Notice are effective only for Kirschstein-NRSA
awards made with FY 2007 funds. Retroactive adjustments or supplementation
of stipends or other budgetary categories with Kirschstein-NRSA funds for an
award made prior to October 1, 2006 are not permitted.
STIPENDS: Effective with all Kirschstein-NRSA awards made on or after October
1, 2006, the following annual stipend levels apply to all individuals receiving
support through institutional research training grants or individual fellowships,
including the Minority Access to Research Career (MARC) and Career Opportunities
in Research (COR) programs. These awards are made under the authority
of Section 487 of the Public Health Service Act, as amended.
The stipend levels are as follows:

These
stipend levels are to be used in the preparation of future competing
and non-competing NRSA institutional training grant and individual
fellowship applications. They will be administratively applied
to all applications currently in the review process.
The NIH encourages institutions to limit the duration of graduate and postdoctoral
training to the extent possible. In most cases, graduate and postdoctoral
research training from any source should not exceed 6 years and 5 years, respectively. The
NIH retains eight levels of postdoctoral stipends to accommodate individuals
who complete other forms of health-related training prior to accepting a Kirschstein-NRSA
supported position. The presence of eight discrete levels of experience
should not be construed as an endorsement of extended periods of postdoctoral
research training.
It should be noted that the maximum amount that NIH will award to support the
compensation package for a graduate student research assistant remains at the
zero level postdoctoral stipend, as described in NOT-OD-02-017.
Training
Related Expenses and Institutional Allowances for Kirschstein-NRSA Recipients
The Training Related Expenses and Institutional Allowances for predoctoral
and postdoctoral trainees and fellows will be paid at the amounts shown below
for all awards made with FY 2007 funds:
Institutional

Public, Private, and Non-Profit Institutions (Domestic & Foreign,

For-Profit Institutions (including health insurance) |
Expenses
allowed within these cost categories are described in the appropriate
program announcements, which can be found at http://grants.nih.gov/training/nrsa.htm. These
amounts will be applied to all competing and non-competing NRSA awards
made with FY 2007 funds. Any FY 2007 awards issued using previously-approved
levels will be revised. These levels are to be used in the preparation
of future competing and non-competing Kirschstein-NRSA institutional
training grant and individual fellowship applications. They will
be administratively applied to all applications currently in the review
process.
