The Behavioral and Biomedical Sciences Training Scholarship

The Behavioral and Biomedical Sciences Training Scholarship is available to graduate students in the biomedical sciences, pharmacy, psychology, and public health. The goal of the BBS Training Scholarship is to support research and academic pursuits that bridge these areas. Individuals who take advantage of the collaborations available through the monthly Meetings of Behavioral and Biomedical researchers will be more strongly considered for funding via this mechanism. Students currently funded by the BBS training grant are not eligible to apply.

Funds may not be used for actual travel expenses (e.g., plane fare, mileage).
