CMB Postdoctoral Research Fellowship in China 2024-2025

CMB Postdoctoral Research Fellowship in China 2024-2025 is a unique training program to support U.S. scholars in the biomedical sciences who seek outstanding mentored research training and the opportunity to build collaborative partnerships in China.

The U.S. and China share an important modern history of global health dialogue and collaboration. Outcomes from such collaborations have not only helped strengthen national and transnational health outcomes in the form of shared knowledge and biomedical tools but have also served as an important means of promoting person-to-person and institution-to-institution relationships through research training.

This program leverages longstanding partnerships at two world-class collaborating Chinese academic centers, and an established community of faculty and leadership dedicated to global health training at Yale—through the NIH Fogarty International Center-sponsored Global Health Equity Scholars Program, and the CMB Global Health Leadership Development Program—to deliver an unparalleled training experience.

Trainees will undergo one year of mentored research training under the supervision of an experienced mentorship team from Yale and the collaborating Chinese institution, with the option to extend the fellowship for a second year if program goals are met during the first year.

Eligibility for Postdoctoral Research 

Candidates for Yale-CMB Postdoctoral Research Fellowships who meet the following criteria will be eligible to apply for this program:

• US citizen or Permanent Resident.
• Have completed a doctoral degree in a relevant field (e.g., MD, PhD, DDS, PharmD, DVM, etc.), or are currently enrolled in a doctoral program and will have obtained the doctoral degree by the start of the CMB fellowship period.
• Available to spend 11-12 months at research site in China, extendable to 2 years.
• Have identified mentors at both the US and Chinese institutions (mentors are academics with a strong collaborative track record of research funding and publication).
