Postdocs are strongly encouraged to apply for funding opportunities during their training. Recognizing the importance of funding to a postdoc’s career, MSK provides extensive support for postdocs searching and applying for fellowships.

- advising on potential funding sources and interpretation of Requests for Applications (RFAs)
- preparing and reviewing budgets
- reviewing and editing project narratives
- submitting completed applications
- negotiating with external funding agencies
- setting up systems in compliance with applicable policies and regulations
Additional grantsmanship resources and classes are offered frequently by faculty and the Office of Postdoctoral Affairs.
