MEDI Predoctoral Fellowships

The ACS Division of Medicinal Chemistry is offering seven predoctoral fellowships of $24,000 each. The awards are for predoctoral students beginning their third or fourth year of graduate study in medicinal chemistry research.

Nominations should be submitted by the applicant's Ph.D. adviser and should include the student's curriculum vitae, including education and work experience; a bibliography, including reprints of articles; a complete project description, including rationale (five-page limit) prepared by the candidate; transcripts of all post-high-school work, including Graduate Record Examination scores (if available); three letters, including a nomination letter from the student's research adviser; and a letter from a university official with a commitment to cover tuition and all fees granted to other regular graduate students.

Applicants must be U.S. citizens or permanent-resident visa holders at the time of application and must have at least one year of graduate school remaining at the time an award would begin.
