Rita Levi-Montalcini Postdoctoral Fellowship in Regenerative Medicine

The Center of Regenerative Medicine at Washington University in St. Louis invites applications for the Rita Levi-Montalcini Postdoctoral Fellows in Regenerative Medicine program. These fellowships honor Rita Levi-Montalcini, whose Nobel-winning discovery of Nerve Growth Factor was among the first regenerative biology research to be conducted at WUSTL.

The Center of Regenerative Medicine (CRM) seeks individuals of outstanding talent with a doctoral degree to provide them with the opportunity to pursue research within a CRM lab. As Rita Levi-Montalcini was herself an international scholar working at WUSTL, we strongly encourage international applicants to apply. Additional information about the Center of Regenerative Medicine can be found at: https://regenerativemedicine.wustl.edu/.  Full program details can be found at: https://regenerativemedicine.wustl.edu/about/rlm_fellowship/rlm_programdetails/. We anticipate awarding one fellowship in 2020.
