University of Michigan Postdoc Preview

Postdoc Preview is a recruiting event and opportunity for upper-level graduate students to explore the extensive postdoctoral research and training opportunities in biomedical sciences at the University of Michigan Medical School.

We are pleased to provide two different opportunities to participate in the Postdoc Preview – a virtual Fall informational event and an in-person Spring event.

Fall Virtual Postdoc Preview: Registration is free and open to all prospective postdocs in the life sciences and biomedical fields. Candidates will have the opportunity to learn about University of Michigan research resources, funding opportunities, life in Ann Arbor, and network with current postdocs. PhD graduate students who expect to complete their degree by the end of the academic year are especially encouraged to attend.

Spring In-person Postdoc Preview: Application-based event that fully funds a two-day visit to the Ann Arbor campus for accepted applicants. Candidates will have the opportunity to interview with prospective mentors, network with current postdocs, and learn about life in Ann Arbor. Priority will be given to Ph.D. candidates who anticipate graduating by the end of the calendar year.

Upcoming Postdoc Preview: 

  • The Spring In-person Postdoc Preview will be held May 7-8, 2026. Applications to attend will be accepted from January 2 - February 28, 2026.
