Postdoctoral Nephrology Research Fellowship Program

About the Fellowship

The Division of Nephrology carries out extensive research in the basic sciences using cell, molecular, and structural biology techniques and a number of model organisms. Postdoctoral research fellows in the Division of Nephrology are appointed by the Department of Medicine and at Harvard Medical School on an annual basis. Reappointments may be recommended annually for three to four years at the discretion of the supervising faculty member and the unit chief.

Foreign applicants for the Postdoctoral Research Fellowship are encouraged to seek funding prior to or concurrent with their application to the division. Stipend levels are determined by the sponsoring faculty member and are ordinarily comparable to that of NIH Fellows with an equivalent number of years of postdoctoral research experience. Fellows appointed to our division also receive full health insurance coverage.
