Call for Applications: Career Mentoring Program for Postdocs

The Office of Academic Training and Outreach Programs (ATOP) is once again seeking postdoctoral fellow applicants for our new mentorship initiative, the CHOP Career Mentoring Program, beginning in October 2022.

The call for applications is now OPEN. The deadline to apply is August 12, 2022.

The objective of this program is to provide CHOP postdocs an opportunity to develop a career mentoring relationship with CHOP postdoc alumni from various career paths or faculty beyond their own department or division. Secondary mentorship enriches the postdoc experience by providing a more well-rounded support team to ensure career success.
