As NIAID Director Dr. Jeanne Marrazzo observes in The HIV Field Needs Early-Stage Investigators, NIAID believes “The next generation of leaders will bring [new frontiers of HIV research] to fruition, and we need to welcome and support them into the complex and competitive field of HIV science.”
Likewise, in the video Supporting Early-Stage HIV Investigators at NIAID, Dr. Marrazzo explains that senior investigators should concern themselves with the career trajectory of promising HIV researchers, and at NIAID we are exploring ways to maximize our resources to fund as many worthy candidates as possible.
