Travel

• Predocs - Students join UCSF through the BMS graduate program. First and second year BMS students are selected by training program leadership for T32 support based on strength of immunology interest.

• Note if a T32 appointee does not use funds during that time, ImmunoX will provide $500 for one approved future year's travel instance.

Childcare Support

• The training grants now include funds up to $2,500 per year that appointees can use to pay for childcare. These funds are available those appointed to this training grant and cannot be used to cover any other cost. Costs for childcare must be provided by a licensed (regulated by state or local authorities) childcare provider/service. Supplemental funds cover dependent children living in the eligible fellow’s home until the age of 13, or children who are disabled until age 18.
  

• Note, childcare costs do not apply to elder or non-child dependent care costs. In cases where a T32 appointment ends early, recipients may not use any unused portion of the childcare costs. It will remain unobligated and will be adjusted by the agency as part of the closeout process.
• These funds are supplied in the form of reimbursement for approved childcare funding (we cannot provide the funds in advance). Documentation is required to reimburse trainees, including:
  

• NRSA Trainee Childcare Letter of Attestation
• Proof that the childcare provider/service is licensed
• Proof of payment to the licensed provider.
