Stadtman Tenure-Track Investigators

Prior to 2009, the NIH conducted individual, programmatic searches to recruit new investigators. Taking a new approach, the Stadtman Tenure-Track Investigators search seeks to identify talent through a broad search that can focus on specific areas of science or enable the candidates to bring their ideas to us. In short, we ask the applicants to describe their research, and—if we like what we see—we try to create a tenure-track position in one of our Institutes or Centers to match that talent. Each year, we aim to hire upwards of 10 researchers through this prestigious program.
