Sleep and Circadian Rhythms Fellowship - Faculty Mentors

Our faculty mentors are committed to sleep and circadian research as demonstrated by their international leadership, strong funding records (including current funding through NIH), and commitment to the training of pre- and postdoctoral fellows.

In partnership with a faculty mentor, trainees will develop independent research programs that can span the gap from bench to bedside. Trainees will receive mentored experience in grant writing, communication, and publication of their research, as well as career counseling.

Before applying for the fellowship:

  • Learn more about a faculty member's research.
  • Identify a faculty mentor whose research interests align with yours.
  • Contact the faculty member and discuss a potential research project.
