For Future Postdocs

Stanford Loves Postdocs

Stanford is home to nearly 2500 postdocs engaged in advanced training toward independence across the entire university.

Postdoctoral Recruitment Initiative in Sciences and Medicine

PRISM is an opportunity for select late-stage graduate students from broadly diverse backgrounds to explore postdoctoral training at Stanford, including interviewing with potential mentors, getting the inside scoop on postdoctoral training at Stanford from current postdocs, and accessing professional development to score the best postdoc for them. 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.
