Fellowships are available for training in various areas of neuroscience.
Applicants must be US citizen or permanent residents who hold a Ph.D. or M.D. degree and have prior graduate training either in neuroscience or in other basic science disciplines. Applicants must be members of an underrepresented minority group including, but no limited to, African Americans, Alaskan Natives, Mexican Americans, Native Americans, Pacific Islanders, and Puerto Ricans. The award will be the standard NIH postdoctoral stipend level and in some cases is renewable for a second year if the applicant is seeking other grant-based support. Travel funds and summer training at the Marine Biological Laboratory in Woods Hole, MA are also provided.
