Lawrence Fellowship

The Lawrence Fellowship provides the recipients with three years of scientific freedom to pursue creative, groundbreaking projects of their own design. Lawrence Fellowships are awarded to candidates with exceptional talent, scientific track records, and potential for significant achievements. Typically two to four fellowships are awarded each year.

To be eligible for the fellowship, applicants must either be within one year of completing their Ph.D. (employment cannot start until Ph.D. requirements have been verified), or have received their Ph.D. degree within five years of being hired as a Lawrence Fellow. The job posting for the Lawrence Fellowship opens in the fall of each year.
