Predoctoral to Postdoctoral Transition Award (Parent F99/K00 - Clinical Trial Not Allowed)

National Institutes of Health · PA-27-037 · Deadline: April 8, 2029

Program-level history — this opportunity doesn't publish per-opportunity awards, so these numbers describe its parent program (CFDA 93.113, Environmental Health), not this competition alone. Labeled that way on purpose.

Draw-down reality (program)

Across 128 completed awards in this program (FY2021+ sample, USAspending outlay records), grantees ultimately drew a median 92% of obligated funds. A median well under 100% means underspend or early closure is common here — worth knowing before promising a spend-down timeline.
