Funding Opportunity Purpose: This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) issued by the National Institute of Mental Health encourages Research Education Grant (R25) applications from Institutions/Organizations that propose to develop, implement, and evaluate creative and innovative research education mentoring programs that will facilitate the development of a cadre of investigators in requisite scientific research areas to advance the mental health-related objectives of the Office of AIDS Research (OAR) Annual Strategic Plan and program priorities of the NIMH Division of AIDS Research (DAR).

This funding opportunity encourages applications proposing mentoring programs that include either a special institute (with didactic and research components) or a national mentoring network.

These mentoring programs are expected to enhance the professional development of the participating individuals and foster their career trajectory towards independent research in the mental health of HIV/AIDS.
