The post-doctoral fellowship provides young scholars an opportunity to apply their research skills in an active policy environment. During their year at the Center, post-doctoral fellows are encouraged to pursue their individual research agendas, while collaborating with and seeking feedback from CGD experts, participating in CGD seminars and events, and taking advantages of the research support of CGD research assistants. Recruitment for this fellowship takes place each fall.
