Postdoctoral Research Fellowship
Guidelines
The Lalor Foundation makes grants to institutions for basic
postdoctoral research in mammalian reproductive biology as related to the
regulation of fertility.
The goal of the foundation is to promote intensive research in the areas
indicated and to assist and encourage able recent postdoctoral investigators in
academic positions to follow research careers in reproductive physiology.
Eligibility of Institutions and Individuals
The institution must be exempt from federal income taxes under Section 501(c)(3)
of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code and must submit a determination letter from
the Internal Revenue Service stating that it is “not a private foundation.”
If the institution is not located in the United States and has not been
classified by the Internal Revenue Service, please contact the fellowship
manager at Grants Management Associates at the address below.
The individual nominated by the applicant institution for the postdoctoral
fellowship for conduct of the work may be a citizen of any country. The
individual should have training and experience of at least equal to the Ph.D. or
M.D. level and should not have a faculty appointment (i.e., instructor,
lecturer, or higher). Potential fellows should not have held the doctoral degree
more than two years.
The applicant institution may make its nomination of a fellow from among its own
personnel or elsewhere, but qualifications being equal, candidates from other
than the proposing institution itself may carry modest preference. The
application must name the institution’s nominee for fellowship and include his
or her performance record. Only one application per laboratory/sponsor will be
considered.
Financial Data
Grants will be $35,000 per year for coverage of fellowship stipend, fringes, and
institutional overhead. Renewal for one additional year is possible under
special circumstances.
Feel free to contact fellowshipmanager @ grantsmanagement.com with any questions. Applications
Application materials are available at the Foundation's website, www.lalorfound.org/tlfapp, or upon request to the Lalor Foundation, c/o Grants Management Associates, 77 Summer Street 8th Floor, Boston, Massachusetts 02110-1006, USA.
