Description
Representatives from the Novartis Institutes for BioMedical Research (NIBR) Postdoctoral Program will visit our campus on Thursday, March 12, 2015 to discuss their program.
The NIBR program provides postdoctoral scholars with a unique opportunity to perform innovative, fundamental research in a pharmaceutical setting. Postdocs design and conduct their research with guidance from a principal investigator at Novartis, and an academic advisor where appropriate. Our postdocs present their work at major research conferences and aim to publish their results in leading peer-reviewed journals. We encourage applications from candidates who wish to pursue a career in academia or industry.
During the visit, members of the Postdoc Office will introduce NIBR’s research strategy and discuss the postdoctoral program objectives and structure. A current postdoc will discuss his/her research project and experience in the postdoc program.

This campus visit will be held at UMBC and UMB. Additional information regarding location and time will be provided at a later date.
