Fulfilling a commitment to strengthen the academic ranks at Scripps Institution of Oceanography, UC San Diego, Scripps has dedicated institutional funding for the recruitment of new postdoctoral scholars each year.
In launching the Scripps Postdoctoral Scholar Program in 2007, Scripps put the spotlight on postdoctoral researchers as valuable assets to its research enterprise. The commitment of institutional support for these positions is significant because postdoctoral employee recruitment is typically funded entirely by the scientists who seek them, which can impact the already sparse resources needed to conduct research.
