The Bio-X Leadership Council is pleased to announce the fifth annual competition for Bio-X Graduate Student Fellowships. The fellowships are the generous gift of an anonymous donor who is helping Stanford strengthen graduate training in interdisciplinary biosciences and so spur important new advances in science and engineering.

Seven 3-year fellowships will be awarded and will provide funding for three years, to begin Fall Quarter 2008/2009. The funding is to be utilized toward payments for graduate tuition and stipend. Eligible graduate students must be 1) working in the lab of a Bio-X affiliated faculty member, 2) starting their first, second, or third year of a Ph.D. program on September 22, 2008. The Bio-X Graduate Student Fellowship may not be combined with any other full fellowship awards. Students already supported from other full fellowship sources, such as NSF, NIH, SGF, are not eligible to apply. The start date of an awarded fellowship can be postponed for a maximum of six months.

Applications must be received, not postmarked by, April 23, 2008 at 5:00pm.
