Postdoctoral Training at NHLBI
The Lenfant Biomedical
Fellowship
The Lenfant Biomedical Fellowship is a competitive
award granted to outstanding postdoctoral fellows in the NHLBI Division
of Intramural Research (DIR). The fellowship is named after a past
Director of the NHLBI, Dr. Claude Lenfant (1982-2003) who was a strong
supporter of excellence in the DIR research program. The intent of this
program is to recognize and provide additional support to those fellows
committed to pursuing a career in research. The recipient of the
Lenfant fellowship will receive an increase in salary support (up to
10%) depending on their employment mechanism.. Lenfant Fellows are
honored by presenting their research findings to DIR Investigators and
Fellows.
Nominations are made by Principal Investigators
and reviewed by a standing committee of DIR Researchers.
