Predoctoral Fellowships — PhRMA Foundation Providing stipend support for graduate students who are engaged in thesis research and have completed most of their pre-thesis requirements Predoctoral fellowships provide $30,000 per year for 12, 18 or 24 months. This award is intended solely as a stipend.
However, within the yearly award amount of $30,000, up to $1,000 (maximum) per year may be used for incidentals directly associated with thesis research preparation or travel to a scientific conference in the United States.
Receiving the PhRMA Foundation fellowship is not only a recognition of my academic achievements, but it also represents a significant investment in my potential to make a positive impact on the future of health research. Applicants (U.S. and non-U.S. citizens) must attend an accredited U.S. university as full-time, in-residence students. Individuals just beginning graduate school should not apply.
Applicants must have completed most of their pre-thesis requirements (at least two years of coursework) and be engaged in thesis research as PhD candidates by the time the award is activated. Award activation can begin as early as January 1, 2027, or as late as August 1, 2027. Applicants who expect to complete their PhD before December 31, 2027, are ineligible.
Applicants enrolled in MD/PhD programs should not be engaged in required clinical coursework or clerkships while the fellowship is active. Fellows are expected to devote full time (including summers) to their research. Applicants who have not authored a publication or presented a poster are ineligible.
Applicants currently funded on an institutional training grant (e.g., NIH TL1, T32, T90, or T35 awards or a nonprofit/professional society equivalent) may apply if they state they will forgo the institutional training slot if funded by a PhRMA Foundation predoctoral award. Applicants are ineligible if they are the recipient of an NIH-F award. The PhRMA Foundation provides predoctoral fellowships in these research areas.
