The Physician-Scientist Early Investigator Program (PEIP) at the National Cancer Institute’s Center for Cancer Research offers a three-year opportunity for early-career physicians to transition to independent clinical research. Participants receive dedicated space, independent funding, and access to advanced research infrastructure, including clinical support, core facilities, and mentorship. The program supports bench-to-bedside research in oncology, health disparities, and related fields, with annual progress reviews and leadership training. Candidates must hold an M.D. or equivalent, have subspecialty oncology training, and dedicate at least 20% time to patient-related activities.
