The NCI Communications Fellowship (NCF), formerly known as the Health Communications Internship Program (HCIP), gives highly-qualified graduate students and recent graduate degree recipients the opportunity to participate in vital communications projects across the National Cancer Institute (NCI).
NCF Fellows are offered one-year fellowships in various communications and science-focused offices at NCI and a robust career development series. The NCF highly encourages individuals with communications education and/or experience who are represented in NIH's Notice of Interest in Diversity (NOT-OD-18-210) to apply.
Due to the rapidly changing circumstances surrounding COVID-19 and NIH’s operating status, the 2021 NCF program will begin with a virtual Orientation on July 6, 2021. We are committed to providing an outstanding fellowship opportunity in 2021 and will update candidates as more information becomes available. Please contact NCF-Contact@mail.nih.gov with any questions.
