NIBIB's Pathway to Independence Award (K99/R00) program is designed "to facilitate a timely transition of outstanding postdoctoral researchers in biomedical imaging and bioengineering from mentored, postdoctoral research positions to independent, tenure-track or equivalent faculty positions," according to the NIBIB website. Offered in two phases, the K99/R00 provides up to five years in grant support, including 1-2 years of postdoctoral research training and 1-3 years support for a research project contingent on obtaining an independent researcher position. Congratulations, Dr. Gazi!
