Open Competitions

HHMI grants are awarded through competitions that have specific objectives and eligibility criteria; thus, HHMI does not encourage and rarely funds unsolicited grant proposals. Information about eligibility requirements and how to apply can be found on the program's page.

Alumni Perspectives

"One of the highlights of my fellowship was presenting my work at the American Society of Hematology conference and getting to meet and learn from top researchers in the field. I'm very grateful to HHMI for giving me the opportunity to be immersed in research for a year, and I would strongly recommend the program to any medical student considering a research career."
