President’s Postdoctoral Fellowships

The President’s Postdoctoral Fellowship, based on a highly successful program launched at the University of California, aims to attract outstanding scholars from groups historically underrepresented in higher education earlier in their careers. The program offers promising postdoctoral candidates a pathway to a faculty position while providing the community and mentoring needed to support success. The College of Biological Sciences is offering two fellowships.
