Charles A. King Trust Postdoctoral Fellowship Program
http://www.hria.org/tmfservices/tmfgrants/king.html

Established in 1936, the Charles A. King Trust was created to 
"support and promote the investigation of human disease and the 
alleviation of human suffering through improved treatment."  In 
keeping with these principles, the Charles A. King Trust Postdoctoral 
Fellowship Program supports clinical or health services research 
scientists in the early to mid stages of their research careers and 
basic scientists in the later stages of their postdoctoral research 
training. The primary goal of the Program is to prepare postdoctoral 
fellows for academic careers as successful independent investigators. 
Bank of America, Edward Dane, and Lucy West serve as Co-Trustees of 
the Charles A. King Trust.

The Charles A. King Trust Postdoctoral Research Fellowship Program is 
designed to support postdoctoral scientists in non-profit academic, 
medical or research institutions in Massachusetts. Each applicant 
must be working under the supervision of an established scientist who 
is the designated Mentor. The primary goal of the Program is to 
prepare postdoctoral fellows for academic careers as successful 
independent investigators.

Up to 12 two-year fellowships ranging from $43,000 to $50,000 per 
year, inclusive of a $2,000 expense allowance, will be awarded.
