Kirschstein National Research Service Award (Kirschstein-NRSA) Short-term training grants (T35s) to provide institutions with funds to support medical students for 2-3 months while they perform a research project, typically between their first and second years of school. Students are provided with a stipend and the institution receives a small allowance for supplies.

Institutional short-term training grants provide stipends and training-related expenses for multiple students to pursue research projects under the guidance of experienced investigators. Selection of students is at the discretion of the PI, or a committee, at the institution. All the requirements of the NRSA programs apply.

At least 50% of the medical student projects in a T35 sponsored by the NIDDK must be within the research mission of the NIDDK. Programs that do not maintain that level may be subject to slot reductions. Applications for eight, to a maximum of 32, short-term slots are submitted following the instructions in the current parent T35 notice of funding opportunity (NOFO).
