PhD Students
PhD students from any PhD program at Vanderbilt University (VU) or Vanderbilt University Medical Center (VUMC) may apply after they have selected a laboratory and research mentor. Applications are typically submitted at the end of the first year of training, though students may also apply at the end of their second year. Under exceptional circumstances, students in their third year may be considered.
Postdoctoral Fellows
Postdoctoral fellows from any department at VU or VUMC may apply, provided they have completed no more than 24 months of postdoctoral training at the time of application.
