An extract of the first 250 words of the full text is provided, because this article has no abstract.

The purpose of this program and research award is to stimulate physicians-in-training to pursue a career in clinical research in hypertension. The research fellow must be conducting work in which he or she is the major senior investigator in any area, including clinical or laboratory aspects of the hypertensive diseases.
