ARI Application
Applicants should be prepared to be working on an R01 (or equivalent). Most successful applicants will have sufficient pilot data to support an R01 application. We always receive more applications than we can accept, so please be sure that your application (e.g., personal statement) documents your readiness for this program.
While ARI is a year-long program, a key component is the Spring Retreat. We have booked our reservation for the 2023 retreat at the Tanque Verde Ranch in Tucson, AZ.
