Applications for Fellowship Program

Applications for the next cycle of DOE Human Genome Distinguished Postdoctoral Fellowships are now being accepted by the Oak Ridge Institute for Science and Education (ORISE). Application deadline is February 1, 1993.

This fellowship program was created to offer challenging training opportunities for recent doctoral degree recipients to conduct research in support of the DOE Human Genome Program. Up to 2 years are served at university or DOE laboratories having substantial DOE-sponsored genome research. Stipends are $35,000 for the first year and $37,000 for the second. Contact: Linda Holmes; ORISE Science and Engineering Education Division; P.O. Box 117; Oak Ridge, TN 37831-0117 (615/576-4805, Fax: -0202).

Human Genome Project 1990–2003

The Human Genome Project (HGP) was an international 13-year effort, 1990 to 2003. Primary goals were to discover the complete set of human genes and make them accessible for further biological study, and determine the complete sequence of DNA bases in the human genome. See Timeline for more HGP history.
