The Cancer Research Institute is currently accepting applications for the CRI Irvington Postdoctoral Fellowship Program. This program furthers career development and supports laboratory research for promising young scientists working under the mentorship of leading immunologists.

In recent years, significant advances in immunotherapy have yielded major breakthroughs in cancer treatment. CRI recognizes, however, that getting to the next great breakthrough will require continued investment in fundamental research and training. With this in mind, CRI invites postdoctoral fellows to apply for funding to support hypothesis-driven, mechanistic studies in both basic immunology and tumor immunology that aim to directly impact our understanding of the immune system’s role in cancer.

Application Deadline: October 1, 2021—Please be aware, your proposal is due to the Office of Sponsored Research and Programs no later than five business days prior to the sponsor deadline. If you have questions about your proposal or the internal deadline, contact osrp@iit.edu at once.

Funding: $175,500 over three years
