The infectious disease and microbial immunology post-doctoral training program is funded by the prestigious and highly competitive National Institutes of Health T32 training program. It is designed to prepare fellows to address critical knowledge gaps in zoonotic infectious diseases and emergence of antimicrobial resistance.
Postdoctoral fellows in the training program are a mix of recent PhD graduates and veterinarians seeking doctorates desiring to develop expertise in cell biology, genetics, epidemiology, immunology or microbiology. This program provides a dynamic training environment where fellows develop the technical and intellectual research skills required to address and solve complex diseases, along with specific expertise with microbial pathogens and a broader and deeper understanding of the global health relevance and impact.
