In the belief that innovation and discovery occur in direct proportion to quality of training, the Life Sciences Research Foundation administers an international program of postdoctoral fellowships in all areas of the life sciences. Since it was established, in 1981, the Foundation has attracted support from a wide variety of sponsors. The mission of the Life Sciences Research Foundation (LSRF) is to establish partnerships between those who support research in the life sciences and academic institutions for their mutual benefit. The simple vehicle for achieving this partnership is a highly competitive postdoctoral fellowship program. Fellowship Eligibility. Three-year fellowships will be awarded on a competitive basis to graduates of medical and graduate schools in the biological sciences holding M.D., Ph.D., D.V.M. or D.D.S. degrees. Awards will be based solely on the quality of the individual applicant''s previous accomplishments, and on the merit of the proposal for postdoctoral research. Persons doing a second postdoc are eligible only if they are transferring to a different supervisor''s laboratory and embarking on a new project not connected to their previous research. All U.S. citizens are eligible to apply with no geographic restriction on the laboratory of their choice. Foreign applicants will be eligible for study in U.S. laboratories. LSRF fellows must carry out their research at nonprofit institutions. LSRF fellows may change projects, laboratories, and/or institutions during the fellowship as long as the eligibility rules listed here are not violated. A person holding a faculty appointment is not eligible to apply for an LSRF fellowship. The LSRF solicits monies from industry, foundations and individuals to support postdoctoral fellowships in the life sciences. Active solicitation of funds continues, for which we need the assistance of all concerned individuals. We recognize that discoveries and the application of innovations in biology for the public''s good will depend upon the training and support of the highest quality young scientists in the very best research environments. LSRF awards fellowships across the spectrum of the life sciences: biochemistry; cell, developmental, molecular, plant, structural, organismic population and evolutionary biology; endocrinology; immunology; microbiology; neurobiology; physiology; virology. Note: There may be no more than one LSRF fellow in any one laboratory at a time.

Membership supported, nonprofit organization established dedicated to improving the lives of persons affected by ataxia through support, education, and research. The Foundation's primary purpose is to support promising ataxia research and to provide vital programs and services for ataxia families. The Foundation first began direct funding of ataxia research through the NAF Research Seed-Money Program. Since that time, the Foundation has established additional research programs which have included programs such as the NAF Young Investigator Award, the NAF Fellowship Award and other research initiatives. NAF research programs continue to fund promising ataxia research studies throughout the world. The Foundation supports research in dominant ataxia (including SCAs), recessive ataxia (including Friedreich's) and sporadic ataxia. The Foundation has developed an extensive library of NAF brochures, fact sheets, books, and videos on ataxia. Also available to its members is the Foundation's quarterly news publication, Generations. This 48 page ataxia news magazine provides the latest information on ataxia research, articles on living with ataxia, personal accounts from ataxia families throughout the United States, and much more.

The National Center for Toxicological Research (NCTR), FDA's internationally recognized research center, plays a critical role in FDA's mission. The unique scientific expertise of NCTR is critical in supporting FDA product centers and their regulatory roles. The NCTR is an important research component of the FDA that plays a critical role in the missions of FDA and DHHS to promote and protect public health. * NCTRin partnership with researchers from government, academia, and industrydevelops, refines, and applies current and emerging technologies to improve safety evaluations of FDA-regulated products. * NCTR fosters national and international collaborations to improve and protect public health and enhance the quality of life for the American people. Through the training of scientists from around the world, as well as FDA staff, NCTR researchers spread the principles of regulatory science globally. * NCTR conducts FDA research with the goal to develop a scientifically sound basis for regulatory decisions and reduce risks associated with FDA-regulated products. NCTR represents the FDA on key committees of the National Toxicology Program (NTP), a program that evaluates the effects of chemicals on health. Over the past 30 years, the NTP and NCTR have conducted studies on FDA-nominated compounds, providing data to support science-based regulatory decisions.
