In collaboration with the Institut Pasteur, the Pasteur Foundation has
launched a program to bring U.S. post-doctoral researchers to work in
Institut Pasteur laboratories in Paris thanks to the generosity of
U.S. donors, and, in particular, that of the Florence Gould Foundation
in New York.<br>
<br>
Guided by the institute's administration which seeks to develop
international scientific exchanges to ensure the vitality and quality
of Institut Pasteur labs, this program is<b> uniquely for American
citizens and does not apply to candidates already in France</b>. The
fellowships are $60,000 ($45,000 fellowship plus $15,000 bench fees to
support the research) per year for a term of three years. Attention
will be given to the Pasteur Foundation Fellows so that their time on
the Parisian campus of the Institut Pasteur is an enriching experience
not only scientifically, but also personally and culturally.<br>
