IDHI leadership and collaborating partners have extensive experience supporting the professional development of early career trainees and faculty, including skill-building in: research grant proposal development; manuscript development and publication; qualitative and quantitative research methods; behavioral intervention development, implementation, and evaluation; and career planning and advancement.

In addition to being integrated with ongoing research projects, scholars will have protected time and mentorship to develop their own independent research ideas and portfolios. This may include activities such as: publishing dissertation manuscripts, writing an NIH training and/or career development awards (e.g. F series, K series), attending professional meetings and conferences, guest lecturing, and engaging in professional service activities. The specific balance of collaborative research and independent research will be discussed with the mentorship team and tailored to meet the scholar’s professional development goals.
