K2R Scholar Program
A collaborative network of early-career faculty and experienced mentors
dedicated to submitting high-impact translational science career proposals
About the K2R Scholar Program
Created through the National Institutes of Health (NIH) Clinical and Translational Science Award (CTSA) Florida State University (FSU) and the University of Florida (UF) partnership, the K2R Scholar Program is designed to create a community of early career faculty and mentors who work together to submit high-impact translational science career development and research proposal to set FSU’s investigators on a path to independence.
Within the K2R program, we house the NIH-funded K12 career development program and support early career investigators in developing K career development proposals (e.g., K01, K23, etc.) and R-level (e.g., R01, R21, R34, etc.) research studies.
The K2R Scholar Program offers a range of workshop and training/program opportunities for emerging researchers:
