The L’Oréal USA Fellowships For Women In Science is a national program that annually recognizes five U.S.-based women postdoctoral researchers who are pursuing careers in the life and physical/material sciences. Recipients receive up to $60,000 each that they must apply towards their postdoctoral research. Recipients of the L’Oréal USA Fellowships For Women in Science program participate in a week of events that include an awards ceremony, professional development workshops, media training and networking opportunities. The Fellowship aims to raise awareness of the contribution of women to the sciences and identify exceptional female researchers in the U.S. to serve as role models for younger generations. The application and more information on the Fellowships can be found at http://www.lorealusa.com/ as of November 5 under the For Women In Science/US Fellowship tab.
