Postdoc Buddy Program

International postdoctoral scholars offered an appointment as a Postgraduate Trainee, Postdoctoral Fellow II, or Postdoctoral Researcher II with UT Southwestern Medical Center can become active members of the Postdoctoral Association at UT Southwestern (PDA.) The International Committee of the PDA was formed to help to ease the transition of new international post-doctorates to UT Southwestern by providing information and resources.

One of the initiatives of the PDA International Committee is the “Buddy Program.” Through this program, you can be matched to a current UT Southwestern postdoctoral scholar who can help to answer your questions about the U.S. research environment and living in Dallas before you arrive on campus.

Please complete our Postdoc Buddy Form to take advantage of this valuable service.

For more information about this service contact the PDA at pdapresident@mednet.edu or the Office of International Affairs at InternationalAffairsOIA@utsouthwestern.edu
