The University of Pennsylvania has 12-month post-doctoral research fellowships available with lead faculty in vibrant new research centers and adjoining labs [July 1, 2015-June 30, 2016]. The fellowships are supported through the:

There will be opportunities to collaborate with scientists across the university in the areas of public health, city planning, social science, geography, medicine and nursing, depending on individual interests.
A stipend plus benefits is included along with a travel allowance to present research results at one or more conferences.
