''Definition of "Postdoctoral Associate''

Students who have graduated with their PhD often go on to accept Postdoctoral Associate positions which are usually appointed with outside support such as training grants, and usually come to work with faculty for specific purposes. Post doctoral associates are not considered to be employees.

Appointments and Responsibilities

Postdoctoral associates are hired through specific grants which define their research project(s).



Salaries are generally paid through grants or through specific fellowships.

Benefits

Post doctoral
associates who are not covered on another policy (i.e. as a spouse or a dependent) are required to have individual health coverage. Postdoctoral fellows are not eligible for University coverage but will, if appointed for at least nine months, be qualified to enroll in one of the University's health plans, with certain stipulations."

Postdoctoral Association: (PDA)

City of Hope's Postdoctoral Association (PDA) welcomes all postdoctoral fellows!

The PDA was founded in 2000 by Michael Reed, Ph.D., a postdoctoral fellow in the Division of Biology.
The PDA encourages postdoctoral fellows to interact with each other and with graduate students and provides opportunities for educational, professional and social growth.

As a postdoctoral fellow, you may have come from across the country or around the world to work here in a lab doing the research on which you will build your career. At the PDA, we help make your experience fulfilling and enjoyable by familiarizing you with the culture at City of Hope, the ins and outs of postdoctoral life, and all the opportunities that we have to offer.

The PDA is headed by a steering committee, comprised of interested researchers who volunteer to promote interactions among postdocs on an academic, social, and cultural basis.

The Post Doctoral Association has a Professional and Social aspect to their organization.
They hold social events like trips to museums, baseball games, and comedy clubs. The organization also interacts with the postdocs from nearby Cal Tech. These are great ways to meet people on and off campus, relax and have fun.

What I liked about the service is that it had such a comprehensive collection of jobs! I was using a number of sites previously and this took up so much time, but in joining EmploymentCrossing, I was able to stop going from site to site and was able to find everything I needed on EmploymentCrossing.
