T32 Training Grant

T32 Predoctoral and Postdoctoral Training Grant Focused on Auditory and Vestibular Neuroscience

 

The department of Otolaryngology and PHRC, and in collaboration with the department of Neurobiology offer the T32 grant "Training in Auditory and Vestibular Neuroscience" to support the stipends and fellowships as well as some of the research costs of graduate students and postdocs in affiliated faculty laboratories. The research-oriented program aims to help students develop into outstanding interdisciplinary auditory and vestibular scientists through training in basic neuroscience and the clinical aspects of hearing and balance disorders.

The program brings together a group of many preceptors spanning the University of Pittsburgh and Carnegie Mellon University committed to training scientists who are interested in auditory and vestibular neuroscience research.
