Pre-doctoral Fellowship:

The one-year fellowship supports medical students who are taking a research year or PhD students in relevant fields in biological or social sciences, pursuing an intensive period of research activities and training at the Osher Center. Fellows will work closely with a research mentor, developing work that is based in an existing research program. Applicants must be in a qualifying PhD or MD/DO program and be able to devote most of their time to fellowship-related work. 

Applications for predoctoral fellowship positions will be accepted on a rolling basis in two rounds.
