Pre-Doctoral Program

What is a Pre-Doc?

Pre-doctoral fellowships are an opportunity to work directly with faculty and experience research projects first hand for two years, before applying for a PhD. Our pre-doctoral fellows design and implement entire research pipelines, from data processing, to model development and evaluation, to summarizing and presenting results. In addition, fellows are able to connect with visiting experts and external collaborators, attend interactive seminars with University faculty, and participate in joint lab meetings, collaborating with and learning from other research teams.
