As a CHIPS fellow, you will attend the CHIPS Summer Research Institute, and receive funding for two trips to visit your mentor and to attend one professional conference of your choosing.
By working one on one with your CHIPS mentor, you will build the survival skills you need to pursue grant funding in a highly competitive environment. The CHIPS Summer Research Institute is also a great place to meet NIMH staff who can advise you on how to maximize your chances of being funded. During the conference, you will have the opportunity to network with other participants, some of whom could become future research collaborators.
The content of the program varies every year, but there is always a panel discussion with recent K-awardees, a lecture by NIMH staff about the different funding mechanisms available, and one-on-one meetings with expert researchers, statisticians for individualized consultations, and NIMH staff who will help you to refine and craft your research plans. You will also be given two opportunities during the conference to present your research plan to the CHIPS faculty, fellows and NIMH staff for feedback and advice.
