Banting Postdoctoral Fellowships Program in Canada

Banting Postdoctoral Fellowships Program in Canada


Canada is building world-class research capacity by recruiting top-tier postdoctoral researchers at an internationally competitive level of funding and positioning them for success as the research leaders of tomorrow.

These prestigious two-year fellowships, worth $70,000 per year, are open to both Canadian and international researchers who have recently completed a PhD, PhD-equivalent, or health professional degree. Seventy fellowships will be awarded each year.

Applicants for a Banting postdoctoral fellowship must apply in close collaboration with the Canadian university or other eligible Canadian research institution at which they would hold the fellowship.

Successful applicants for the Banting Postdoctoral Fellowships Program will be selected on the basis of three criteria:

* research excellence and leadership in their area of expertise or research;
* quality of the applicant’s proposed research program; and
* institutional commitment and demonstrated synergy between applicant and institutional strategic priorities.

All applicants, without exception, must submit their completed applications by the program deadline of November 3, 2010. This includes input from the host institution and all referee letters.
Applications can be submitted electronically via ResearchNet : www.researchnet.ca
