Cancer Research Postbac Program

Recruitment for the Cancer Research Postbac Program is currently paused.

Due to the significant delays caused by the pause, we are determining the best path forward and will contact all CRP applicants as soon as we have finalized our plans for the program.

Eligibility

To be eligible to participate in the CRP program, you must meet the following eligibility criteria:

  • Must be a United States citizen or permanent resident
  • Must be a college graduate who received a bachelor's degree less than two years prior to the program start date (i.e., received after Aug 2023)
  • Must demonstrate current or past research experience equivalent to a 10-week-long full-time summer internship
  • Must be available for a one- or two- year post-baccalaureate fellowship, beginning by early August

In order to be approved for logical and physical access to NIH facilities and systems, candidates must be able to pass a federal background check.
