2023 Hanna H. Gray Fellows Program

Note: This is not a limited submission and is being announced as a courtesy only.

The goal of the Hanna H. Gray Fellows Program is to recruit and retain individuals from gender, racial, ethnic, and other groups underrepresented in the life sciences, including those individuals from disadvantaged backgrounds. Through their successful careers, HHMI Hanna Gray Fellows will become leaders in academic research and inspire future generations of scientists.

Since 2017, HHMI has held regular competitions to select Hanna Gray Fellows. In 2021, HHMI expanded our commitment to advance inclusion at key career stages in academic science. The Institute pledged to select up to 25 Hanna Gray Fellows annually for the next decade. Fellows receive funding to support their postdoctoral training and may continue to receive funding during their early career years as independent faculty. Each fellow participates in professional development, mentorship, and networking with their community of peers and the broader HHMI community of scientists across career stages.
