“PRIDE mentorship provided the foundation to build my work\, allowed me to think outside the box\, and provided an opportunity to build lasting collaborations with PRIDE cohorts and mentors\, and to jointly pub lish and write grants. PRIDE provides an amazingly enriching experience and I strongly recommend it.” – PRIDE Mentee\, 2008

Who: Eligibl e applicants are junior-level faculty or scientists with a background that is underrepresented in the biomedical or health sciences\, and are U nited States Citizens or Permanent Residents. Research interests should be compatible with those of the National Heart\, Lung\, and Blood Institute (N HLBI) in the prevention and treatment of heart\, lung\, blood\, and sleep ( HLBS) disorders.
What: This all-expense paid< /i> program incorporates effective mentored training opportunities to enhan ce research skills and to promote the scientific and career development of trainees with a research interest in cardiovascular disease comorbidities\, genetics and epidemiology.
Trainees will learn effective strategies for preparing\, submitting and obtaining external grant funding for researc h\, including extensive tips on best practices.
The program includes:
· A year-long mentored research experi ence that includes two consecutive 2-week summer sessions and multip le mentor-mentee meetings throughout\, beginning July 11\, 2022

· Mid-year meeting for all participants with their mento rs
· Annual meeting with all 9 PRIDE programs and NHLBI (Apri l 2023)
· Opportunity to develop a network of collaborators a nd resources to conduct research at the interface of genetics\, epidemiolog y\, and cardiovascular disease and risk factors
· The core ob jective is to prepare mentees to pursue independent research in one of the NHLBI mission areas of heart\, lung\, blood\, and sleep disorders through s ubmission of research grants within 2 years of the second summer training s ession.

“I am so grateful to the PRIDE St. Louis family. Your leadersh ip\, eagerness to teach and share your rich experiences helped me grow imme nsely. I would not be where I am today without your continuous and unreserv ed support. I went from never having a funded grant to PI on 2 R01s & 1 R21 \, and 5 grants as Co-I!” – PRIDE Mentee\, 2014
