The NIAID Transition Program in Clinical Research seeks up to three candidates for three- to five-year appointments as assistant clinical investigators. The NIAID Transition Program in Clinical Research provides an exceptional opportunity for physicians to gain clinical and translational research experience in the NIAID Division of Intramural Research (DIR). The program aims to increase the pool of well-trained clinical investigators who are competitive for clinical tenure-track positions.
