Yale Ciencia Academy (YCA) for Professional Development Open for Applications

The Yale Ciencia Academy (YCA) for Professional Development has issued a call for applications.

YCA is an NIH-funded (R25GM114000) initiative that has recently been modified to equip doctoral students interested in biological, biomedical or behavioral research and who are in the final 1-2 years of their programs with the knowledge, skills, and networks they need to find great postdoctoral positions that will further their academic interests and career goals. The program supports students who identify as being from an underrepresented background in science, as defined by the NIH. The application period closes March 1, 2023, and the program runs from June 2023 to June 2024.

A brochure on the program is available for download.
