Implementation Research Institute, a NIMH training grant that provides fellowships

We are eager to share with you information about our Implementation Research Institute, a NIMH training grant that provides fellowships for junior/mid-level investigators who are interested in utilizing implementation science to advance mental health services. We would appreciate your passing the attached announcement to people from your organization/listserve. Below is a brief overview:

  • Applications for the 2012-2013 cohort should be submitted electronically between November 01, 2011 and January 21, 2012
  • Fellowships will be awarded for 2 years
  • Fellows will receive training, mentorship, help preparing proposals, travel to annual NIH conference on dissemination and implementation research, travel to a funded implementation research project, pilot project funding, and access/involvement with implementation research experts.

We are honored and excited to have this opportunity. We believe it will help rapidly increase the expertise in the dissemination and implementation field. Thank you for any help you are able to provide in getting the word out about this opportunity. If you have any questions or comments, please feel free to contact us (iri@brownschool.wustl.edu).
