Stanford PRISM - Stanford Postdoc Recruitment Now Accepting Applications

The application is now open for our fifth PRISM cohort. Stanford PRISM is a recruitment opportunity for late-stage graduate students from diverse backgrounds to explore postdoctoral training at Stanford.

Please forward the following message to your colleagues and any graduate students planning to complete their PhDs by June 2021 who might be interested in considering postdoctoral training at Stanford.

Stanford PRISM
PRISM (Postdoctoral Recruitment Initiative in Sciences and Medicine) is an opportunity for select late-stage graduate students from broadly diverse backgrounds to come to Stanford for a recruitment weekend, interview with potential mentors, and get the inside scoop on postdoctoral training at Stanford. The purpose of this program is to encourage those who might not currently consider a postdoctoral position at Stanford to get a first-hand look at whether Stanford might be a good fit for them. Our goal is to match excellent trainees to excellent mentors at Stanford.

This opportunity is open to all. We especially encourage those from backgrounds underrepresented in academia to apply, including but not limited to: African Americans, Latinos, Native Americans, Pacific Islanders, Filipinos, those with disabilities, first generation college-goers, those from disadvantaged socio-economic backgrounds, and those underrepresented on the basis of gender identity or expression or sexual orientation. Applications consist of an application form, a CV, a research statement, a recommendation from your graduate advisor, and the names of up to 6 potential mentors at Stanford.

For more information or to apply, go to http://postdocs.stanford.edu/PRISM
PRISM Spring 2020 dates: May 20-23, 2020
Deadline: March 2, 2020
