  • Distinguished Postdoctoral Fellows Program

    Postdoctoral Fellowship - Deadline 01/21/2022 - closed

    The goal of the Distinguished Fellows Program is to enable postdoctoral fellows at Johns Hopkins University to pursue cross-disciplinary research in neuroscience, engineering and data science. The Fellowship will foster discovery-driven neuroscience research aligned with the mission of the Kavli Neuroscience Discovery Institute (Kavli NDI) and will be guided by co-mentorship, drawing upon the expertise of Johns Hopkins faculty to direct innovative, interdisciplinary postdoctoral research projects. The successful fellow will be co-mentored by two JHU faculty with distinct expertise in neuroscience, engineering and/or data science. At least one mentor must be an existing Kavli NDI member or submit an application to become a Kavli NDI member (see below for further details) to be reviewed alongside the Fellowship application. Note that PI’s applying for Kavli NDI membership must conduct research that aligns with the mission of Kavli NDI. Awarded Fellows and their PI’s will be expected to attend monthly Kavli NDI meetings and to participate in various Kavli NDI events throughout the tenure of the award.

    The Kavli NDI supports support diversity in our community and strongly encourage proposals that will support individuals identifying as women, LGBTQ, underrepresented minorities, and international students.

  • Distinguished Graduate Student Fellowship Program

    Graduate Student Fellowship - Deadline 01/21/2022 - closed

    The primary goal of the Kavli NDI Distinguished Graduate Student Fellowship is to enable mid- and advanced stage graduate student trainees at Johns Hopkins University to pursue cross-disciplinary research in neuroscience, engineering, and data science. The Fellowship will foster discovery-driven neuroscience research aligned with the mission of the Kavli Neuroscience Discovery Institute (Kavli NDI) and will be guided by co-mentorship, drawing upon the expertise of Johns Hopkins faculty to direct innovative, interdisciplinary graduate student research projects. The successful student will engage in research that reflects the priorities and mission of Kavli NDI and will be co-mentored by two PIs. Awarded students and their PI’s will be required to attend monthly Kavli NDI meetings and to participate in various Kavli NDI events throughout the tenure of the award.

    The Kavli NDI supports support diversity in our community and strongly encourage proposals that will support individuals identifying as women, LGBTQ, underrepresented minorities, and international students.

  • UNDERGRADUATE SUMMER INTERNSHIP PROGRAM

    INTERN OVER THE SUMMER WITH OUR RESEARCH TEAM - Deadline 02/01/2022 - closed

    The Kavli Neuroscience Discovery Institute supports initiatives that bridge neuroscience, physics, data science and engineering to solve the mysteries of the brain. The Kavli NDI Summer Internship Program (SIP) at Johns Hopkins University is a 10-week program that provides experience in research laboratories to students of diverse backgrounds, including underrepresented minority students and students from economically disadvantaged, underserved backgrounds that have completed two or more years of college. This Program focuses on providing young scientists unique research opportunities to synthesize knowledge from multiple disciplines, thereby expanding the horizons of their own expertise and technical skills. Through this initiative, the Kavli NDI aims to provide transformative training for a new generation of transdisciplinary neuroscientists, engineers, and data scientists equipped to meet tomorrow’s research challenges. Watch this video for a brief overview of Baltimore and the SIP at Johns Hopkins University from previous SIP undergraduate participants.  

  • Kavli NDI Visiting Scientist Program

    Honorarium - Deadline 06/30/2020 - closed

    Kavli NDI Visiting Scientist Program Subtitle Honorarium Deadline: closed. The primary goal of the Kavli NDI Visiting Scientist Program is to enrich research at Johns Hopkins University by supporting short-term visits by external scientists to Johns Hopkins laboratories. The program will promote scholarly exchange and establish new collaborations between the visiting scholars and the Johns Hopkins community. This call invites proposals from current faculty of Johns Hopkins University to invite a non-Hopkins affiliated scientist to spend a minimum of one week at Johns Hopkins University. Hopkins faculty host applicants should contact their prospective candidate visitor directly to develop their proposal prior to submitting an application. To increase impact, it is expected that the Kavli Visiting Scientist will interact with the broader Hopkins community during the visit, by presenting a seminar, hosting a workshop, or chairing a discussion group.
