The organizing committee is seeking nominations for students to be considered for the 22nd annual St. Jude Children's Research Hospital National Graduate Student Symposium (NGSS) and the 9th annual Future Fellow Research Conference (FFRC). The NGSS and FFRC are exceptional academic and professional development opportunities for Ph.D. students and will be held March 26-28 and June 4-6, 2024, on the St. Jude campus.
The NGSS and FFRC are all-expenses-paid symposia to which top Ph.D. students from around the country are invited to participate. To be eligible, students must be U.S. citizens or permanent residents, with estimated graduation between April 2024 and July 2025. Preference will be given to students whose work is relevant to ongoing research at St. Jude.
Students may only apply if they are nominated by faculty, so they are responsible for securing a nomination from a faculty member. To nominate students, faculty should visit stjude.org/ngss and complete a simple form.
Faculty may nominate multiple students, but nominations must be received by October 16, 2023. Nomination of exceptional under-represented minority students is encouraged.
Invitations to apply will be sent to students in late October. For those graduating before April 2024 who may be interested in postdoctoral fellowships at St. Jude, please review stjude.org/postdoc and their open positions: https://talent.stjude.org/
