FIGURE 3. — FIRST alumni grants. (A) Numerical data available from NIH about the mean time from completing a T32 postdoctoral fellowship until grant awards of various types. (B) Mean times from A are superimposed on the distribution of the number of FIRST fellows who have graduated from the program and remained in academic environments. (C) Based on the mean times and the times after leaving the FIRST program, it is possible to make conservative estimates of the number of grants FIRST fellows are likely to have been awarded to compare with the actual grants awarded. Although the numbers are small, FIRST fellows appear to have met expectations for acquiring grants. R01 equivalents include NSF awards that pay faculty salary and an indirect cost rate the same as a R01.
