The NIBR program provides postdoctoral scholars with a unique opportunity to perform innovative, fundamental research in a pharmaceutical setting. Postdocs design and conduct their research with guidance from a principal investigator at Novartis, and an academic advisor where appropriate. Our postdocs present their work at major research conferences and aim to publish their results in leading peer-reviewed journals. We encourage applications from candidates who wish to pursue a career in academia or industry.

During the visit, members of the Postdoc Office will introduce NIBR’s research strategy and discuss the postdoctoral program objectives and structure. A current postdoc will discuss his/her research project and experience in the postdoc program.
