  10. NIH Has a Broad Interest in Diversity Notice of NIH s Interest in Diversity: NOT-OD-20-031 There are many benefits that flow from a diverse NIH-supported scientific workforce, including: fostering scientific innovation enhancing global competitiveness contributing to robust learning environments improving the quality of the research advancing the likelihood that underserved or health disparity populations participate in, and benefit from health research enhancing public trust

  11. NIH Has a Broad Interest in Diversity Notice of NIH s Interest in Diversity: NOT-OD-20-031 Underrepresented Populations in the U.S. Biomedical, Clinical, Behavioral and Social Sciences Research Enterprise: individuals from several racial and ethnic groups individuals with disabilities (physical or mental) Individuals from disadvantaged backgrounds (defined in NOT-OD- 20-031) women, especially those from the above backgrounds

  12. CURE and iCURE Promote Diversity in Cancer Research Workforce NCI particularly encourages applications from individuals from groups identified in NIH's Notice of Interest in Diversity (NOT-OD-20-031) as underrepresented in the biomedical, clinical, behavioral, and social sciences. Disadvantaged Background Race/Ethnicity Disability Blacks or African Americans American Indians or Alaskan Natives Native Hawaiians and other Pacific Islanders Homeless Physical or mental impairment that substantially limits one or more major life activities Foster care system First generation w/ Bachelor's degree Special Supplemental Nutrition Program Rural or low income/access areas Hispanics or Latinos Federal Pell Grants

  13. NCI Diversity Training Programs Extramural: Continuing Umbrella of Research Experiences (CURE) Support research experiences of underrepresented students and scientists Promote professional and career development Help the trainees achieve research independence I intramural: Intramural Continuing Umbrella of Research Experiences (iCURE) I
