Description
The Lalor Foundation’s Postdoctoral Fellowship Program supports promising researchers establishing scientific and teaching careers in mammalian reproductive biology related to the regulation of fertility. It funds basic postdoctoral research through sponsoring institutions in the United States and abroad, helping investigators early in their careers develop toward independently funded work.
The program reflects the foundation’s longstanding commitment to investigators beginning teaching and research careers in universities and colleges. Since 1960, the foundation has concentrated its assistance on postdoctoral research in this field. Proposals should explain how the research could potentially contribute to regulating human fertility or developing a method of birth control; this relevance can help distinguish applications of comparable scientific merit.
