Industrial Fellowship Deadline May 3

Attention academic postdocs and other Ph.D. scientists: You have until May 3 to finish an application that could change your life.

That’s the deadline to apply for the North Carolina Biotechnology Center’s Industrial Fellowship Program.

These fellowships give select Ph.D. scientists a unique chance to get industry experience. In turn, they give companies access to new talent and expertise.

The program is for recent doctoral graduates and postdoctoral fellows who would like help making the transition from academia to a corporate science career.

It provides two years of salary and benefits for each fellow. They learn the ropes from senior-scientist mentors at sponsoring companies. This year, the companies chosen for are:

  • Advanced Liquid Logic
  • Bayer CropScience
  • Gentris
  • Icagen, Inc. (Pfizer)
  • PharmAgra

NCBiotech provides a significant part of the fellows’ salaries and benefits. The sponsoring companies share the cost at a rate based on revenue.
