Summer Institute Program to Increase Diversity (SIPID)
Program Requirements
All applications are evaluated at SUNY Downstate Division of Cardiovascular Medicine. Applications are accepted via email, fax or mail. Applicants who send complete applications will receive a postcard or message acknowledging receipt of their application. Those who send incomplete or unresponsive applications will receive a statement as to why their application will not be reviewed. However, they will be invited to submit a new application for the following year.
The Institute will consider applicants who are qualified doctoral-level candidates (e.g., MD, PhD, EdD) who are faculty members or scientists in the US and its territories and are US citizens or foreign nationals.
Candidates must be junior faculty and scientists from underrepresented minority population groups and/or individuals with disabilities.
The Summer Institute will provide funding to support travel and accommodations for up to 12 trainees.
All applications along with supported materials must be submitted by April 1.
