• Dates at NIH.
• Source and amount of funding.

SAMPLE FIRST PARAGRAPH:
Dr. (full name of scientist) [DOB: MM/DD/YYYY; Passport Number XXXXXX] is engaged in biomedical research as a Postdoctoral Visiting Fellow at the National Institutes of Health (NIH), a United States federal government research organization in Bethesda, Maryland. Dr. (last name of scientist) received a Ph.D. from the University of XYZ, (name of country), in May 2008. The dates of his/her postdoctoral fellowship are from MM/DD/YYYY to MM/DD/YYYY.

• Note how the scientist’s qualifications enable him/her to be at the lab/branch.

SAMPLE SECOND PARAGRAPH:
Dr. (last name of scientist) will conduct research at the Laboratory of XYZ at the National Cancer Institute (NCI). The goal of the Laboratory is basic biomedical research related to drugs, toxins, and carcinogens at the molecular, biochemical, and cellular levels. The applications of this research may contribute to future cancer diagnosis and treatment. Three areas are currently under study: (1) common gene mutations that influence individuals’ susceptibility to cancer (2) the mechanisms by which receptors within cancer cells respond to certain cellular proteins, and (3) how existing cancer cells metastasize or spread into new organs. Dr. (name of scientist) will be involved in Project 2. His/Her training and experience related to molecular signaling pathways make him/her well qualified for this research project.
