I can say that your assumptions are correct. In search committees we are instructed to look for previous success in obtaining NIH funding and current NIH funding. Most people that were hired at my institution in the past few years had a K99. This said even if you get one and get a job, I really recommend you do not wait to turn the project around into an R01 and remain very mindful of your early stage investigator status. Every little of bit of help into getting more NIH funding is going to make a difference.The new PIhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10432035024665768151noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2544393461869133373.post-12545752376815978622017-12-14T05:47:17.435-05:002017-12-14T05:47:17.435-05:00I've binge-read so much of your blog, its grea...I've binge-read so much of your blog, its great. I'm a postdoc and it looks like I will be awarded the F32 award. I'm now gearing up to try for a K99. The main reasons I want to get is that I assume it will help me get a tenure track job and that I'll have a "leg up" when I apply for a renewal of the R00 as an R01. Can you comment on how correct these assumptions are? Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
