Postdoctoral Ph.D. researchers are the lifeblood of most basic science laboratories; they are essential for the conduct of science at the highest possible intellectual and technical level. Many otolaryngology departments have recruited outstanding basic scientists to tenure-track positions. Having a strong pool of well-trained postdoctoral fellows is essential to meeting all of these goals.

Like predoctoral students, postdoctoral Ph.D.s face a gap in funding after they arrive at a laboratory, before they can be supported by an individual NSRA fellowship. As part of our training grant, our Otolaryngology Training Grant funds one postdoctoral candidate per year to help them with this transition.
