Notes from the NHLBI Director: Fostering the Independence of New Investigators

Dr. Nabel - October 4, 2005

The nurturing of young talent was a high priority during my tenure in academic medicine, in particular because it coincided with a time of constrained budgets that resulted in the virtual loss of a generation of promising young investigators.
