The National Institutes of Health's (NIH) K99/R00 Pathway to Independence Award offers promising postdoctoral researchers and clinician-scientists an opportunity to receive research support at both the mentored and the independent levels with the goal of facilitating a timely transition to a tenure-track faculty position. This transitional program has been generally successful, with most K99/R00 awardees successfully securing R01-equivalent funding by the end of the R00 period. However, often highly promising proposals fail because of poor grantsmanship. This overview provides guidance from the perspective of long-standing members of the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute's Mentored Transition to Independence study section for the purpose of helping mentors and trainees regarding how best to assemble competitive K99/R00 applications.
美国国立卫生研究院（NIH）的K99/R00独立之路奖为有前途的博士后研究人员和临床科学家提供了一个机会，使其在受指导阶段和独立阶段都能获得研究支持，目标是促进他们及时过渡到终身教职岗位。这个过渡项目总体上是成功的，大多数K99/R00获奖者在R00阶段结束时成功获得了相当于R01的资金。然而，往往很有前景的提案却因糟糕的资助申请技巧而失败。本概述从国立心肺血液研究所指导过渡到独立研究小组的长期成员的角度提供指导，旨在帮助导师和学员了解如何最好地撰写有竞争力的K99/R00申请。
