Administrative Supplements to Promote Diversity in Research and Development Small Businesses - SBIR/STTR #DiversityandInclusion Are you interested in supporting more diversity and inclusion in your biotechnology? The National Institute on Aging (NIA) Small Business Program is accepting applications for Diversity Supplements, which are administrative funds (up to $250,000 in direct costs) to enhance the research and entrepreneurial workforce’s diversity by recruiting and supporting students, post-docs, and eligible investigators from underrepresented groups in health-related research into the Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) and Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) programs. Scientists, entrepreneurs, and trainees from diverse backgrounds and life experiences bring unique perspectives, creativity, and individual enterprise to address complex scientific problems. Participation by minority, socially and economically disadvantaged, and women-owned small businesses is critical to the success of the SBIR and STTR programs as well as to the development of new treatments, technologies, and products that address healthy aging. NIA strives to identify, develop, and support researchers by fostering diversity in the workforce through the SBIR and STTR programs and encourages you to consider applying for the Administrative Supplements to Promote Diversity in Research and Development Small Businesses - SBIR/STTR. https://lnkd.in/gT8XhyNU

Excellent insights were uncovered in this recent poll conducted by Duncan McDonald! What are your thoughts on this? Were you anticipating that 'eligibility criteria' would surpass 'limited awareness' as the primary obstacle in trial recruitment? #clinicalresearch #clinicaltrials #decentralisedclinicaltrials #researchinnovation #patientengagement #patientrecruitment #patientretention #unifiedprotocol

I recently conducted a poll involving over 40,000 Life Science Professionals to gather insights on what they consider to be the primary challenges in clinical trial recruitment. The results are quite revealing as shown on the graph. For a more in-depth exploration of these challenges and to discover potential solutions that may not be widely known, I invite you to read my linked article. https://lnkd.in/d7sbThv5 Thank you to all who contributed.

Our Baseline on Belonging research with NOMA revealed disparities in firm support for candidates pursuing licensure. To help address this, we've developed two new guides: 📎 Candidate Guide: Know what licensure support you can advocate for (and how to advocate for yourself) at your firm. 📎 Firm Guide: Understand best practices for maintaining a supportive and equitable work environment for licensure candidates. Going forward, NCARB and NOMA will continue to develop resources to address the disparities identified in our study. Learn more about our research and access the free guides ⤵️ https://ow.ly/a3MC50S2pwS
