The Life Sciences Research Foundation is pleased to announce recipients of three-year postdoctoral fellowships who will begin their training as early as June 2008. The awards are the twenty-sixth to be made by the Foundation, which was organized in 1981 as an alternative instrument for guiding monies from industry, foundations, agencies, and other donors to the non-targeted support of outstanding young scientists. The awardees were chosen by the Foundation's Peer Review Committee from about 800 applicants. Each recipient will work at a non-profit institution of his or her choice, and each will be identified as the individual recipient of support from one of the Foundation's Sponsors.
The 26th Annual Meeting of the Life Sciences Research Foundation will take place in Philadelphia from October 3 - 5, 2008.
Fellows present their work in the form of a brief talk or poster to their peers, sponsors, guest speakers, LSRF board, peer review committee members and administrative staff. The meeting also features guest speakers and plenty of opportunity for informal discussion. If our meeting had a motto, it would be: "good food, great science"!
