29th RCMI Collaborative Training Awards 
One of the activities under the RCMI Program is to provide funds for facilitating training activities in relevant research areas.
To accomplish this goal, funds are available to enable short visits of Medical Sciences Campus faculty and graduate students to learn research techniques and/or develop collaborative relationships with senior scientists outside of Puerto Rico. Abstract presentations are not a focus of this initiative.
Research training in areas relevant to health disparities (i.e. cancer, diabetes, cardio-vascular and neurological disorders, HIV, infectious diseases, etc.), population studies and community engagement are encouraged and will be given priority.
Allowable expenses include travel expenses and housing, as well as other related expenditures. Travel activities must be initiated before May 31th, 2023.
Faculty and Graduate Students interested in applying for this award must access the electronic application form available here.
The application form must then be submitted electronically to rcmi.rcm@upr.edu by Friday, February 17, 2023
ONLY ELECTRONIC SUBMISSIONS WILL BE ACCEPTED
AWARDS ARE FOR SHORT-TERM TRAINING AND RANGE BETWEEN $1,500- $2,500
