Arnold O. Beckman Postdoctoral Fellowship in Chemical Sciences or Chemical Instrumentation Award Program
Eligibility: U.S. citizenship or permanent residency required; must have no more than 18 months of cumulative postdoctoral research experience, or no more than 3 years from PhD; must pursue postdoctoral training in an area of chemical sciences that would likely not be eligible for funding by traditional chemical biology, biochemical, or biological science mechanisms.
Deadline Month: September
Description: This program supports postdoctoral scholars who have the highest potential for success in an independent research career in core areas of Chemical Science and Chemical Instrumentation, and to assist in their transition from "mentored yet independent" postdoctoral projects to an independent, tenure-track position. The award amount provides 2 years of salary, fringe benefits and research expenditures, with the option to extend for a third year; instrumentation fellowships will receive an additional one-time payment for material/development costs.
