NIH Environmental Justice Scholars Program

August 22, 2024 6:19 PM | John Curtis (Administrator)

The Environmental Justice (EJ) Scholars Program invites EJ expertise, knowledge, and skills from research scholars, academics, public health and health care professionals, and EJ leaders from community-based organizations to work with staff members at various NIH ICOs.

Environmental Justice scholars will be hosted by one or more NIH Institute, Center, or Office (ICO). During the program period, EJ scholars will collaborate with NIH staff on one or more research, education, or training relevant activities, contributing to the wider NIH community. EJ scholars may partner with NIH intramural and/or extramural (grant funded) scientists on projects of shared interests.

Scholars are expected to dedicate up to 25% of their time for up to 10 months to support and collaborate with their host ICO(s). Scholars will work virtually, unless otherwise agreed upon with their host ICO(s). The scholar will work with the host ICO on the structure and terms of their work plan prior to position commencement.

A stipend up to $25,000 may be available. Travel and living expenses for on-site EJ Scholars events may be available.

Please submit your application package by Friday, October 11th, 2024, at 11:59 PM EDT. See complete details and application instructions on the NIH website.
