NIGMS Website (Includes video of webinar): NIH Maximizing Opportunities for Scientific and Academic Independent Careers (MOSAIC)

You can find the login  information on the NIGMS Meetings Webpage.  You can read more about the MOSAIC program in a recent post on the NIGMS Feedback Loop Blog, as well as answers see answers to Frequently Asked Questions.  NIH plans to post the slides and video on the MOSAIC website shortly after the webinar.

The MOSAIC program (PAR-19-343) is designed to facilitate the transition of promising postdoctoral researchers from diverse backgrounds, for example postdocs from groups underrepresented in the biomedical research workforce at the faculty level, into independent faculty careers in research-intensive institutions.

There are currently 15 ICs participating in the MOSAIC K99/R00 program (NIGMS, NIBIB, NINR, NIMHD, NHGRI, NIA, NLM, NIMH, NIDA, NIAAA, NHLBI, NIEHS, NIDCD, NIDCR and NCCIH). Please note, the MOSAIC K99/R00 award is limited to US Citizens and Permanent Residents.  In addition to the postdoctoral transition award, MOSAIC scholars become members of scientific cohorts and participate in mentoring, networking, and professional development activities coordinated by MOSAIC UE5 awardees.  The initial MOSAIC UE5 Awardees are The American Society for Cell Biology (ASCB), The American Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology (ASBMB), and The Association of American Medical Colleges (AAMC).
