“The future promises remarkable advances in biomedical research. To attain that goal, we need broad, transformative training for clinician scientists.  It is time to invest boldly in new ways of learning so that the next generation of innovative thinkers can open new frontiers in knowledge and transform medicine.”
-Francis Collins, M.D., Ph.D.,
NIH Director

New technological advances play an increasingly vital role in promoting human health, but real progress is impossible without a new generation of capable and curious researchers.

The Foundation for the National Institutes of Health (FNIH) supports initiatives to train and educate the most skilled and talented researchers, and to encourage young investigators to pursue the promise of future discoveries.
