NSBRI Postdoctoral Fellowship Program

The National Space Biomedical Research Institute is soliciting applications for its postdoctoral fellowship program. Two-year fellowships are available in any U.S. laboratory carrying out space-related biomedical or biotechnological research that supports the NSBRI's goals. NSBRI research addresses and seeks solutions to the various health concerns associated with long-duration human space exploration. Applicants must submit proposals with the support of a mentor and institution. A peer-review panel will review all proposals. The program is open to U.S. citizens, permanent residents or persons with pre-existing visas obtained through their sponsoring institutions.

Detailed program and application submission information is available at www.nsbri.org/announcements/rfp05-01.html.

Letters of intent are due May 11; the application deadline is June 28. Both must be submitted through the NSBRI's electronic proposal submission system.

Questions may be directed to Gerald Sonnenfeld, program director, NSBRI Postdoctoral Fellowship Program, at 607-777-4818 or by e-mail to postdoc@www.nsbri.org.
