In September 2007, Chandravanu (CV) Dash successfully competed for a Howard
Temin Pathway to Independence (PI) Award (K99/R00) from the National Institute
on Drug Abuse for his proposal "Role of Nucleic Acid Structure in HIV-1 Replication."
The award provides up to five years of support consisting of two phases.
The initial phase will provide one to two years of mentored support (up to $90,000)
for highly promising postdoctoral research scientists. This phase will
be followed by up to three years of independent support (up to $249,000) contingent
on securing an independent research position. The primary goal
of the PI Award Program is to increase and maintain a strong cohort of new and
talented NIH-supported independent investigators.
