21st Century Scientists:
Research Training Opportunities for Underrepresented Minorities
Postdoctoral Funding
After completing the Ph.D. or another advanced degree, individuals can receive additional support from MORE. For example, one program combines a traditional postdoctoral research experience at a research-intensive institution with the opportunity to develop teaching skills through mentored assignments at a minority-serving institution. This facilitates the progress of postdoctoral scientists toward research and teaching careers in academia, provides a resource to motivate the next generation of scientists, and promotes connections between minority-serving and research-intensive institutions.
