My wife and I were postbac IRTAs 25 years ago. Neither would have pursued a career in research if not for this program
We have PhD students in Yale Immunobiology now who also came from this NIH program including (one amazing student in my lab)
This is a valuable program and has been for decades.

One of the many, many “pauses” and cancellations devastating our next generation of researchers. “The NIH Intramural Program has paused the recruitment of IRTAs, CRTAs, and Visiting Fellows in all training programs pending guidance from Health and Human Services. Check back daily for updates.”
