Before Getting Here

The New Postdoctoral Fellow Checklist is designed to serve as a pocket guide of initial and poignant JHU acclimation information for new Homewood-based postdoctoral fellows. In addition, all new postdocs are encouraged to familiarize themselves with the postdoc Policies, and Services and Benefits.

New Postdoctoral Fellow and J-1 Scholar Orientations

New postdoctoral fellow orientations are offered monthly. Please RSVP via email to Lynda Barker citing your program and preferred date of orientation attendance. Zoom information will be provided upon your RSVP. Attendance is expected at first availability and is mandatory  for WSE Postdoctoral Fellows.
