How do I know if I am a new investigator by NIH criteria?
Applicants are considered new investigators if they have not previously served as the principal investigator on any PHS-supported research project, including an R01. Exceptions to this include the small grant (R03), an Academic Research Enhancement Award (R15), an exploratory/developmental grant (R21), or certain research career awards directed to individuals at the beginning of their research careers (K01, K08, K12s, K22, K23, K25, or K30).I am basing my answer to this question on my experience with over 450 gender variant patients who have come to see me over the last 21 years. On presentation, many of these people are scared, deeply depressed and at the limits of their ability to face life each day. It is not uncommon for these individuals to be having their marriages and careers falling apart..
What are the career prospects?
With a degree in science, not only can you start a career as a professional scientist in industry, government service or higher education, you can also enter many other professions as a person who has been trained to understand complex data, think critically and communicate ideas effectively.The goal of Adopt a Scientist is to expose high school students to the wide variety of careers available to people with a science education.
What careers exist for me in molecular and cellular biology?
Some careers such as physician, professor, and industrial research scientist are traditional choices for students of molecular and cellular biology. Many new careers are evolving daily as a result of developing new biotechnologies. The following is a partial list of careers available to students with strengths in molecular and cellular biology. Web sites related to those career categories have been included in most cases. Note: The Biotechnology Center Placement Office is mainly for use by M.S.In school, the most important thing is to do well in all topics, but especially in mathematics and science. You also want to cultivate your interest in science, by reading and learning as much as you can, from books, scientific web sites, science TV programs, etc. If you have universities, research organizations, or NASA centers nearby, you may want to see if they offer internships to high school students.I am basing my answer to this question on my experience with over 450 gender variant patients who have come to see me over the last 21 years.

What is the goal of the program?
The goal of Adopt a Scientist is to expose high school students to the wide variety of careers available to people with a science education. Even in the best high school science classrooms, it is often difficult for students see how textbook work translates to a career in academia or industry. This program seeks to help teachers address this problem by setting up email interviews between high school students and scientists.Some careers such as physician, professor, and industrial research scientist are traditional choices for students of molecular and cellular biology. Many new careers are evolving daily as a result of developing new biotechnologies.
