Interdisciplinary Scholars in Experimental and Quantitative Biology
The Interdisciplinary Scholars in Experimental and Quantitative Biology (ISEQB) Program, introduced in 2017, is a new and innovative funding opportunity for postdoctoral research and training. The ISEQB Program is designed to address several needs at CSHL: (1) recruitment and retention of talented postdocs who are interested in both wet-lab and dry-lab research; (2) establishment of a true interdisciplinary training program for postdocs, with a balance of experimental and quantitative components and a commitment from mentors in both areas; (3) promotion of new and ongoing collaborative research between experimental and quantitative groups; and (4) promotion of growth and strengthening of the QB community at CSHL. The ISEQB Program is open to applications in all areas of research at CSHL, including basic molecular biology and genetics, cancer, plant biology, and neuroscience. It can be used either for the recruitment of new postdocs or as a funding mechanism for postdocs who are already at CSHL.
