Postdoctoral Fellowship

The NIH has awarded our department a T32 grant (Training in Translational Research of Skin Diseases) and we are now accepting applications for trainees.

This grant provides stipends for predoctoral and postdoctoral fellows. Postdoctoral trainees must have earned a PhD or MD. Pre-doctoral trainees must finish required courses and pass their graduate program qualifying exam before they are eligible to apply. Applicants must be US citizens or have a green card. 

All trainees will be required to focus directly on cutaneous biology and skin diseases, combined with a focus on regenerative medicine and stem cell biology related research for their projects. Both pre- and postdoctoral trainees will be required to apply for additional extramural funding (e.g., individual K-award) during their first year of support.

Applicants are required to submit the following application materials:

• A research project proposal (3 page limit). The three-page proposal will consist of Rationale, Specific Aims, Approaches, Innovation, Significance, and a brief plan for extramural funding application (the page limit does not include references). 
• Transcripts of their education,
• Three letters of recommendation, and
• Biosketches for themselves and their mentor as pdf documents

Please send application materials to Julie Clarke (Julie.Clarke@CUAnschutz.edu). Proposals will be reviewed and ranked based on NIH training grant criteria including project merit, quality of trainee, and quality of mentor. We strongly encourage underrepresented minority candidates to apply. 

Sincerely,
