Welcome to the City of Hope Postdoctoral Training Program

Postdoctoral scholars are vital members of the research community at City of Hope. We are committed to fostering a collegial, inclusive academic environment where postdocs' voices are heard. While the majority of mentorship comes from a postdoc’s principal investigator, our Postdoctoral Training Office (PTO) provides additional structure to support career development and practical resources for daily life.

Beyond pursuing fundamental research, we believe postdocs should gain essential skills in grantsmanship, scientific communication, interviewing, and mentorship. Our goal is to ensure your time as a postdoctoral scholar at City of Hope is both productive and transformative, setting the stage for a thriving career at the cutting edge of science.
