Description
The TSCRP Career Transition Award mechanism was first offered in FY08. One Career Transition Award application was received and 1 was recommended for funding.
The Career Transition Award supports TSC researchers during the transition from postdoctoral training to an independent position. This award will cover up to two years of postdoctoral training followed by up to two years of a faculty-level position. Under this award mechanism, the postdoctoral candidate is considered the Principal Investigator (PI). Important aspects of the Career Transition Award are as follows:
• The award covers the last two years of a postdoctoral fellowship and the first two years of an independent faculty position.
• Career transition and development plans must be clearly articulated.

• A named mentor who will support and guide the PI during the postdoctoral period of the award.
• All applications must include preliminary data relevant to TSC research and the proposed project.
Clinical Trials are not allowed under this award mechanism. PIs wishing to apply for funding for a clinical trial should utilize the Clinical and Translational Research Award mechanism. See the Program Announcement for the full Funding Opportunity Description.
