FIESER POSTDOCTORAL FELLOWSHIP

The Mary Fieser Postdoctoral Fellowships Program seeks to enhance diversity and excellence in the Department of Chemistry and Chemical Biology (CCB) of Harvard University by providing postdoctoral fellowship support to women and groups that are historically underrepresented in science and to others whose background, experiences and research interests will contribute to academic diversity in CCB. Promising scholars male and female who have been historically underrepresented in chemistry (including but not limited to African American, American Indian, and Hispanic/Latino) are encouraged to apply.

Up to 12 fellowships may be awarded in 2008. Fellowships will be for an initial period of one year, with potential for renewal of up to one year (a two-year maximum level of support). Stipends will be targeted to the NRSA year ‘0’ amount and will include health insurance and other benefits. Applicants are required to have completed all PhD requirements prior to arrival. All applicants must be eligible to work in the United States before arrival.
