Leadership
Dr. Frederick TysonFormer NIH Program Director
Tyson Research and Strategic Consulting is led by Dr. Frederick Tyson, a former NIH Program Director who understands scientific research from both the investigator and the funding and program perspective.
That dual vantage point shapes every engagement: how a research question is framed, how a program is built, how a proposal reads to reviewers, and how a scientific career is sustained over decades rather than grant cycles.
