Stanford Faculty | Supporting Postdoc Recruitment through PRISM

PRISM is a recruitment mechanism intended to improve diversity among the postdoc population at Stanford. We welcome applicants with a wide variety of identities that are underrepresented within academia. Our goals are to attract postdoc applicants who might not have otherwise considered Stanford for their postdoc and who might thrive here, and to match those candidates to potential faculty mentors.
