About this position
The Miller Institute for Basic Research in Science at the University of California, Berkeley offers Miller Research Fellowships to support outstanding early-career researchers in the basic sciences. The fellowship is designed to give recipients the opportunity to pursue their research on the Berkeley campus in an intellectually broad, interdisciplinary environment.
The programme welcomes nominations for individuals with strong academic achievement and clear promise in scientific research. Fellows are expected to bring curiosity across science and an interest in interdisciplinary exchange while carrying out their own research at Berkeley. The opportunity is administered by the Miller Institute for Basic Research in Science and is open to researchers from around the world.
The award is structured as a research fellowship rather than a project-specific studentship, with support intended for independent scientific work at Berkeley.
