We strongly encourage all Postdoctoral Fellows who are interested in an academic career to teach in an informal setting as a mentor for undergraduate and graduate students working in their faculty mentor's laboratory. With the faculty mentor's permission, we will offer Postdoctoral Fellows, whenever possible, the opportunity to teach a formal course. This teaching experience provides those Postdoctoral Fellows seeking an academic career with a significant competitive advantage.

We provide access to a variety of job placement resources including a subscription to ScienceCareers.org Career Development Center.
