Other Postdoctoral Training Programs at the NIH

  • Fellowships in Cancer Epidemiology and Genetics

  • The Division of Cancer Epidemiology and Genetics (DCEG) of the National Cancer Institute conducts a national and international program of population- and family-based studies to elucidate the environmental and genetic determinants of cancer. Fellowships of up to five years' duration under the supervision of DCEG scientists are available. Fellows design, carry out, analyze, and publish research studies related to the etiology of cancer in human populations, and gain experience with interdisciplinary, interagency, and multicenter collaborations. Fellowship applications are accepted on an ongoing basis.

  • Cancer Prevention Fellowship Program (CPFP)
    The CPFP offers postdoctoral fellowship opportunities in cancer prevention and control research for individuals from a multiplicity of disciplines, including behavioral, laboratory, and clinical sciences, epidemiology, ethics, and public health. 

  • Cancer, Genetics, and Signaling Fellows Program (CGSFP)

    This program, housed on the NCI campus in Frederick, MD, accepts applications twice a year (spring and fall) for postdoctoral awards focusing on molecular and genetic aspects of cancer.
