The Harvard Vision Faculty offers a program of study for postdoctoral students designed to foster future research and teaching careers in emerging areas of molecular visual sciences. The trainee is expected to acquire expertise in current molecular research techniques and knowledge of outstanding problems in ophthalmology. Individuals who have recently acquired a doctoral degree (Ph.D. or M.D.) are invited to carry out full-time research projects over a period of two to three years and take advantage of formal and informal coursework offered. Our objective is to generate strong candidates for academic faculty, research institute staffs, or research industrial positions in which breakthroughs in problems of vision may be made.

Please note: This Training Program requires a minimum of 2 years commitment. Funding is provided for a single year during which trainees are required to apply for an NRSA fellowship in order to continue their training and research.
