Clinician-scientists play an important role in advancing translational science and provide unique perspectives to biomedical research informed by patient care. However, the path toward becoming a clinician-scientist is not easy and may be particularly challenging for complementary and integrative health clinicians because of diverse credentialing standards and varying opportunities to engage in research prior to/during clinical training.

The National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health (NCCIH) is excited to partner with the National Center for Advancing Translational Sciences (NCATS) to provide a new research career development pathway for complementary and integrative health clinician-scientists. In this new career development funding opportunity, NCCIH will support the appointment of scholars with doctoral-level clinical complementary and integrative health degrees to NCATS Clinical and Translational Science Awards KL2 Institutional Career Development programs for a minimum of 2 years of research training.
