Connect with both current IonE Postdoctoral Fellows and IonE researchers.
We invite you to join us in any or all of the following calls to understand IonE and our cohort-based fellowship program. We especially encourage you to attend or listen to the replay of the Informational Webinar on February 10, as this webinar will address questions about projects and provide useful information for how to craft your application. We believe interviewing is a two-way street. We welcome all questions in any of these upcoming conversations and invite you to review our comprehensive FAQs as well.
