Postdoctoral Fellowship in Drug Discovery
The PhRMA Foundation Postdoctoral Fellowship in Drug Discovery provides stipend support for individuals engaged in a multidisciplinary research training program that will create or extend their credentials and provide new skills in drug discovery research.
Letter of Intent due on June 16, 2022.
Up to two years.
$60,000 per year, for up to two years
Applicants (U.S. and non-U.S. citizens) must have a firm commitment from a sponsor/mentor at an accredited U.S. institution. Eligible applicants must 1) hold a PhD degree or appropriate terminal research doctorate in a field of study logically or functionally related to the proposed postdoctoral activities or 2) expect to receive the PhD before activating the award.
Postdoctoral applicants should be within their first five years of postdoctoral studies at the time the award begins. Applicants requesting funds to continue an existing postdoctoral program beyond a fifth year will not be considered.
One of the objectives of this fellowship is to gain new skills in drug discovery research, and therefore an ideal candidate will be conducting their research in a new laboratory and not where their graduate work was performed. While all applications involving drug discovery will be considered, preference will be given to individuals sponsored by a unit with responsibility for drug discovery training and research as part of its core mission.
