Sponsoring Agency: Minority Physiology Fellowship

Category: Research Fellowship/Scholarship

Description: Eligibility is restricted to Black students of non-Hispanic origin. This award provides tuition and expenses to support the training of talented students entering a career in physiology and to provide predoctoral fellowships for minority students, postdoctoral fellowships, and limited sabbatical leave aid for faculty members of predominantly black schools who wish to update their expertise in physiology. In addition, funds have been made available for lectureships and laboratory equipment to develop teaching consortia linking predominantly black colleges with medical schools in the same area. Summer research fellowships are also awarded for minority undergraduate opportunities in physiological research. The recipients receive basic stipends, and an institutional allowance is given to the training department or laboratory where the recipient will work. Sponsored by the American Physiological Society (William T. Porter Fellowship Award).
