Epidemic Intelligence Service Application Deadline - September 15, 2007

The Epidemic Intelligence Service (EIS) is a 2-year, postgraduate
program of service and on-the-job training for health professionals
interested in the practice of epidemiology. Each year, EIS provides
approximately 90 persons, who have been selected from around the
world, opportunities to gain hands-on experience in epidemiology at
CDC or state or local health departments. EIS Officers, often called
CDC's "disease detectives," have gone on to occupy leadership
positions at CDC and other public health agencies nationally and
internationally. However, the experience also is useful for health
professionals who want to gain a population health perspective.

Persons with a strong interest in applied epidemiology who meet at
least one of the following qualifications may apply to EIS:

* physicians with >1 year of clinical training;

* persons with a PhD, DrPH, or other doctoral degree in
epidemiology, biostatistics, the social or behavioral sciences,
natural sciences, or the nutrition sciences;

* dentists, physician assistants, and nurses with an MPH or
equivalent degree; or

* veterinarians with an MPH or equivalent degree or relevant public
health experience.

Applications are now being accepted for the July 2008 -June 2010 EIS
Program. Application materials must be postmarked by September 15,
2007. Application information and EIS Program details are available at
http://www.cdc.gov/eis; by telephone (404-498-6110); or by e-mail
(eis...@cdc.gov).

The purpose of The Paul & Daisy Soros Fellowships for New Americans is
to provide opportunities for continuing generations of able and
accomplished New Americans to achieve leadership in their chosen
fields. The Program is established in recognition of the contributions
New Americans have made to American life and in gratitude for the
opportunities the United States has afforded the donors and their
family.

A New American is an individual who (1) is a resident alien; i.e.,
holds a Green Card, or, (2) has been naturalized as a U.S. citizen, or
(3) is the child of two parents who are both naturalized citizens.

The Program is open to individuals who retain loyalty and a sense of
commitment to their country of origin as well as to the United States,
but is intended to support individuals who will continue to regard the
United States as their principal residence and focus of national
identity.

The applicant must either have a bachelor's degree or be in her/his
final year of undergraduate study. Those who have a bachelor's degree
may already be pursuing graduate study and may receive Fellowship
support to continue that study. Individuals who are in the third, or
subsequent, year of study in the same graduate program are not,
however, eligible for this competition. Students who have received a
master's degree in a program and are continuing for a doctoral degree
in the same program are considered to have been in the same program
from the time they began their work on their master's degree.

To be eligible you must not be older than thirty years of age as of
NOVEMBER 1, 2007.

http://www.pdsoros.org/

----------------------------------

General Eligibility Criteria:

You must be applying for September entry.

The Ford Foundation International Fellowships Program (IFP) provides
opportunities for advanced study to exceptional individuals who will
use this education to become leaders in their respective fields,
furthering development in their own countries and greater economic and
social justice worldwide. To ensure that Fellows are drawn from
diverse backgrounds, IFP actively seeks candidates from social groups
and communities that lack systematic access to higher education.

IFP is the largest single program ever supported by the Ford
Foundation. By investing $280 million over ten years through 2010, the
Foundation intends to build on its half century of support for higher
education. Foundation programs have long promoted the highest
educational standards and achievement. Ford fellowship recipients have
become leaders in institutions around the world and have helped build
global knowledge in fields ranging across the natural and social
sciences as well as the humanities and arts. IFP draws on this
tradition and underscores the Foundation's belief that education
enables people to improve their own lives as well as to assist others
in the common pursuit of more equitable and just societies.

The NIH hereby notifies Principal Investigators holding specific types
of NIH research grants (listed in the full announcement) that funds
are available for administrative supplements to improve the diversity
of the research workforce by supporting and recruiting students,
postdoctorates, and eligible investigators from groups that have been
shown to be underrepresented. Although the administrative supplements
supported under this program provide funding for less than one percent
of all individuals involved in NIH supported research, the NIH has
found these awards to be an effective means of encouraging
institutions to recruit from currently underrepresented groups.
Administrative supplements must support work within the scope of the
original project.

All NIH awarding components participate in this program. Candidates
eligible for support under this supplement program include individuals
at various career levels who come from groups that have been shown to
be underrepresented in science. Such candidates include individuals
from underrepresented racial and ethnic groups, individuals with
disabilities, and individuals from disadvantaged backgrounds. Detailed
eligibility criteria are described in the full announcement.

The NIH recognizes a unique and compelling need to promote diversity
in the biomedical, behavioral, clinical and social sciences research
workforce. The NIH expects efforts to diversify the workforce to lead
to the recruitment of the most talented researchers from all groups;
to improve the quality of the educational and training environment; to
balance and broaden the perspective in setting research priorities; to
improve the ability to recruit subjects from diverse backgrounds into
clinical research protocols; and to improve the Nation's capacity to
address and eliminate health disparities.

You may submit (an) application(s) if you are the Principal
Investigator, at a domestic institution, who holds an active R01, R10,
R18, R22, R24, R35, R37, R43, R44, R41, R42, P01, P20, P30, P40, P41,
P50, P51, P60, U01, U10, U19, U41, U42, U54, or S06 grant. Because
policies may vary among awarding components regarding eligibility of
Small Grant Awards (R03), Academic Research Enhancement Awards (R15),
or Exploratory/Developmental Grants (R21) for supplements under this
program, grantees holding those awards must check with the appropriate
awarding component before submitting an application for a supplement.

CDC Grants for Public Health Research Dissertation

Purpose. The purpose of this Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) is
to invite applications for support of public health dissertation
research. This program supports research undertaken as part of an
academic program to qualify for a doctorate. The CDC dissertation
award supports dissertation research costs for students in accredited
research doctoral programs in the United States (including Puerto
Rico, and other U.S. Territories or possessions). Dissertation

Grants to support dissertation research will provide no more than
$35,000 in direct costs per year, and are awarded for up to one year,
with the possibility of extension without additional funds for up to
12 months.

Because the nature and scope of the proposed research will vary from
application to application, it is anticipated that the size and
duration of each award will also vary. The total amount awarded and
the number of awards will depend upon the mechanism numbers, quality,
duration, and costs of the applications received.

applicant for a dissertation research grant must be enrolled in an
accredited doctoral degree program and must propose to conduct
research in one of the areas specified in this FOA. (These awards do
not support study leading to the M.D., D.O., or D.D.S., or similar
professional degrees unless they are part of a combined degree
program.) The doctoral student must be a citizen or a non-citizen
national of the United States or an individual who has been lawfully
admitted for permanent residence (i.e., in possession of an Alien
Registration Receipt Card) at the time of application. Individuals

Albert Einstein Distinguished Educator Fellowship Program

The Albert Einstein Distinguished Educator Fellowship Act was signed
into law in November 1994. The law gives the Department of Energy
responsibility for administering the program of distinguished educator
fellowships for elementary and secondary school mathematics and
science teachers. Selected teachers spend up to one year in a
Congressional Office or a federal agency. Agencies that have
participated include: the Department of Energy (DOE), the National
Science Foundation (NSF), the National Aeronautics and Space
Administration (NASA), the National Institutes of Health (NIH), the
Department of Education (ED), National Institute of Standards and
Technology (NIST), the White House Office of Science and Technology
Policy (OSTP) and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration
(NOAA). The Fellows provide their educational expertise, years of
experience and personal insights to these offices.

Some of the outstanding contributions of Einstein Fellows have
included:

* Drafting legislation and influencing policy that seek to improve
K-16 education in the United States
* Initiating collaborations and establishing partnerships among
federal agencies
* Designing and implementing national science, math, and
technology education programs
* Creating Web-based science education programs
* Establishing and evaluating national and regional programs
centered on school reform and teacher preparation in science,
mathematics and technology

The Triangle Coalition for Science and Technology Education assists in
the administration of the Einstein Fellowship program. The Triangle
Coalition in coordination with the Office of Science handles the
recruitment of teachers, the application process, the selection
process, and the placement and orientation of the Fellows. The
Triangle Coalition will regularly monitor and evaluate the quality of
experiences the Fellows are receiving in their respective positions.
The Office of Science remains the ultimate steward of the program's
management. Information about the current and past Fellows, how to
contact them, their duties, and day-to-day activities can be found at
the Triangle Coalition web site: http://www.triangle-coalition.org/ein.htm
Expectations of Fellows

Fellows are expected to:

* behave in a responsible and professional manner

* complete the ten month appointment

* submit three written reports; an initial placement report, an
interim report and a final report on their Fellowship duties and
experiences

* participate in all scheduled enrichment meetings and activities

This is not a JOB ... It is a fellowship and it is intended to support
the intellectual and professional development of teachers who have a
sincere desire to contribute their expertise of and be involved in the
advancement of science, mathematics, and technology education.
Duration of Fellowship

Einstein Fellows usually serve for ten months in professional staff
positions in the U.S. Senate or House of Representatives, DOE, NASA,
NSF, NIH, ED, NIST, or OSTP. Appointments usually begin in September
and end in June.

"Strength in Numbers," aims to expand the breadth of opportunities for health professionals seeking careers in biomedical and behavioral research

STRENGTH IN NUMBERS: NIH DEBUTS CAMPAIGN TO EMPOWER INDIVIDUALS TO
PURSUE CAREERS IN RESEARCH
"NIH's Loan Repayment Program campaign, "Strength in Numbers," aims to
expand the breadth of opportunities for health professionals seeking
careers in biomedical and behavioral research."

The NIH's Loan Repayment Program (LRP) Strength in Numbers campaign
debuted today. Offering a renewed commitment to qualified postdoctoral
scientists who are seeking careers in biomedical and behavioral
research, the program funds up to $35,000 annually in loan repayment.

>From September 1 to December 1, 2007, the NIH will accept applications

for loan repayments of up to $35,000 annually of the qualified
educational debt of health professionals pursuing careers in one of
the five LRPs offered by the NIH: Clinical Research, Clinical Research
for Individuals from Disadvantaged Backgrounds, Contraception and
Infertility Research, Health Disparities Research, and Pediatric
Research. The programs also provide coverage for federal and state tax
liabilities.

"It is the energy and enthusiasm of promising postdoctoral scientists
that pushes forward the frontiers of medical research and discovery.
We hope that our continued investment in new scientists today, through
the Sixth Annual Loan Repayment Program application cycle, will
provide the support these researchers need to meet the nation's health
challenges of tomorrow," said NIH Director Elias A. Zerhouni, M.D.

More than 5,200 research scientists have benefited from the $380
million investment in student loan and tax relief. The "Strength in
Numbers" campaign seeks to alert every eligible applicant, in a
variety of disciplines, to take advantage of this opportunity. "The
LRP Clinical Research Program provided me the financial freedom to
pursue my desired career as an academic clinical researcher. I have
been able to begin a line of research that will improve the
understanding and treatment for substance use disorders in special
populations," stated Michelle Lofwall, MD, a physician-scientist LRP
awardee at the Rosalind Franklin University of Medicine and Science
Chicago Medical School.

To qualify, applicants must possess a doctoral-level degree, devote 50
percent or more of their time to research funded by a nonprofit
organization or government entity (federal, state, or local), and have
educational loan debt equal to or exceeding 20 percent of their
institutional base salary. Applicants must also be U.S. citizens or
permanent residents to be eligible. All applications must be completed
by 8 p.m. EST, December 1, 2007.

Visit <www.lrp.nih.gov <http://www.lrp.nih.gov> > for more details and
to apply.

The Office of the Director, the central office at NIH, is responsible
for setting policy for NIH, which includes 27 Institutes and Centers.
This involves planning, managing, and coordinating the programs and
activities of all NIH components. The Office of the Director also
includes program offices which are responsible for stimulating
specific areas of research throughout NIH. Additional information is

Christine Mirzayan Science and Technology Policy Graduate Fellowships

Dear Colleague,

We are pleased to announce that applications are being accepted by the
National Academies' Christine Mirzayan Science and Technology Policy
Graduate Fellowship Program for calendar year 2008.

Graduate students and postdoctoral scholars and those who have
completed graduate studies or postdoctoral research within the last 5
years are eligible to apply.

The 2008 program will comprise three 10-week sessions:

Winter: January 7 through March 14
Summer: June 2 through August 8
Fall: September 8 through November 14

To apply, candidates should submit an application and request that a
mentor/adviser fill out a reference form. References can be received
in advance of the application and are good for an indefinite period of
time.
Application materials as well as additional program information are
available on the Web at <http://national-academies.org/
policyfellows>.

The deadline for receipt of application material is November 1 for the
Winter program, March 1 for the Summer program, and June 1 for the
Fall program. Candidates may apply to all three programs concurrently.

If you have a draft/inactive application on file or would like to
reinstate a previously submitted application, please be sure to select
one or more session dates in 2008.

Questions should be directed to: policyfell...@nas.edu.

Below are comments from alumni about the program's impact:

"This is an important career building opportunity for people
interested in the scientific community outside academia. Even if you
plan to pursue a traditional academic track, seeing science from a
policy perspective is very enlightening. There is something valuable
in this experience for first year grad students to recent PhD's. Come
with an open mind and expect to learn more than you bargained for."

"This program will open your mind to a world rarely envisioned from
the confines of laboratory bench work. I learned an immeasurable
amount about the policy and politics behind science and after the
fellowship opens your mind, it opens career doors."

"Just ten weeks in the S&T policy world in DC substantially broadened
my perspective on how I can use my engineering background to
positively impact our society. I return to graduate school recharged
about the value of advanced education, and more confident about my
decisions to pursue studies that blend the boundaries of engineering
and the humanities. I feel like I have much new knowledge and
understanding to share with my fellow graduate students as well as my
professors. No matter what field of study you are pursuing, there is
no reason not to apply for a policy fellowship. By seeing the
connections between your academic field and the public policy arena,
you will find many new opportunities for future studies or careers.
You will be enriched as a person, as a public citizen, and as a member
of an academic community."

"A really great experience for those from the "soft sciences" who
have an interest in S&T policy or if you're trying to figure out what
else you might want to do outside of academia. This was a great
opportunity to bridge the gap and gain a new understanding and
appreciation for how it all works, the people involved, and the
profound difference it can make in the end (and all long the way)."

Thank you for your interest in the program.

The Consortium for Graduate Study in Management is the country’s preeminent organization for promoting diversity and inclusion in American business. Through an annual competition, The Consortium awards merit-based, full-tuition fellowships to America’s best and brightest diverse candidates. In conjunction with our member schools, sponsoring companies, and our elite group of MBA students and alumni, The Consortium has built a forty year legacy of fostering inclusion and changing the ethnic and cultural face of American business.

The history of The Consortium is a rich one replete with scores of success stories. It began just one year after the landmark Civil Rights Act of 1964, against a backdrop of civil unrest, with one man’s extraordinary vision. Professor Sterling Schoen of Washington University in St. Louis envisioned a cooperative program that would develop African American male MBAs. Professor Schoen dared to pursue his dream by first determining that his idea was a viable one. He sought and won an award for the project from The Sloan Foundation to conduct a feasibility conference. Sixty influential educators and leaders from the African American community participated in the conference and determined that such a program was both feasible and necessary. The Consortium was established in 1966 as an innovative program designed to hasten the entry of African American men into management positions in business.

The inaugural Consortium class consisted of 21 African American men and the organization was supported by 27 corporate sponsors. After 1970, in keeping with the progressive philosophy on which the organization was founded, the mission evolved to include women and, shortly thereafter, Hispanic Americans and Native Americans.

As a forward thinking organization committed to inclusion, we strive at all times to be responsive to the dictates of the current educational, business and political environments. Consequently, we reached another historic juncture in June 2005 when our mission evolved to include, as applicants, all U.S. citizens and permanent residents who can demonstrate a commitment to The Consortium’s mission. All applicants, regardless of race or ethnicity, must be able to demonstrate this commitment. We are convinced that through this more inclusive approach, we will reach our ultimate goal of full representation of underrepresented minorities in MBA programs and American business in a more effective and efficient manner. We firmly believe that diversity is an American opportunity – not a legal or political issue.



10/4/2007
Application Instructions
The Consortium’s Mission

The mission of The Consortium for Graduate Study in Management, an alliance of leading American business schools and some of our country’s top corporations, is to enhance diversity in business education and leadership by helping to reduce the serious underrepresentation of African Americans, Hispanic Americans and Native Americans in both our member schools’ enrollments and the ranks of management. We will achieve this mission by recruiting for graduate business education qualified U.S. citizens and U.S. permanent residents from these underrepresented groups, as well as other persons who can demonstrate a commitment to The Consortium’s mission and can best assist The Consortium in pursuing this mission.



The Consortium Fellowship
Last year the 13 Consortium schools offered more than 300 fellowships covering tuition and mandatory fees for two years of full-time study. Applicants who are admitted through The Consortium process and become Consortium members are considered for these prestigious fellowships. Individual schools may also award other merit based scholarships and financial aid.

Applicant Eligibility

Prospects who meet all of the following requirements are eligible to apply through The Consortium:

1. Are African Americans, Hispanic Americans, or Native Americans or U.S. citizens or U.S. permanent residents of any race or ethnicity.
2. Demonstrate a commitment to The Consortium’s mission of helping to reduce the serious underrepresentation of African Americans, Hispanic Americans and Native Americans in both our member schools’ enrollments and the ranks of management.
3. Hold a four-year bachelor's degree from an accredited college or university in the U.S. or an equivalent degree from a foreign country.
