Fellowship and Grant Opportunities

Incentive payment for independent postdoctoral fellowship or grant

Postdoctoral Fellows are strongly encouraged to apply for independent fellowships and grants. The Graduate College rewards excellent OUHSC postdocs who apply for and receive peer-reviewed independent funding. To be eligible, the fellowship or grant must be peer-reviewed by a national scientific review committee and must be based upon the scientific merit of research the postdoc will be pursuing. Details of this incentive payment can be accessed here.

The OUHSC Office of Research Administration emails a weekly summary of all funding opportunities that includes links to postdoctoral fellowships. If you do not receive the email it is also posted on the  ORA web site.

In addition, there are institutional training grants in Immunology, Microbial Pathogensis, Vision and GeroScience that may have postdoctoral positions. Contact the Principal Investigators for information for Microbial Pathogenesis research, Dr Jimmy Ballard ; for Geriatrics research, Dr. William Sonntag;  for Immunology research Dr. Madeleine Cunningham and for VIsion Dr. Michelle Callegan. 

Some fellowship/grant opportunities are posted on the National Postdoctoral Association web site.
