New investigator
100+ open programsCatalog updated
This hub is narrower than it looks, on purpose. It lists open programs whose titles actually say new investigator or young investigator, rather than every program a new investigator could apply for. The early career hub has the wider pool.
The distinction matters because a program named this way is usually a society's designated entry point. It has its own review pool, so you compete against other new investigators rather than against established labs. That is the biggest advantage available at this stage and it does not show up in the award size.

The median is $10,000 and most sit between $5,000 and $50,000. The sponsors are societies and disease-specific foundations: the Netherlands Respiratory Society, the Leukemia Research Foundation, the Oncology Nursing Society, the Pediatric Endocrine Society.
Definitions of new vary and the catalog does not normalize them. Some mean within five years of a terminal degree, some within three years of a first faculty appointment, and some mean anyone who has not held an award from that sponsor before. That last one is the easiest to miss.
