The primary objective of the UC MEXUS-CONACYT Postdoctoral Research Fellowship Program is to advance academic scholarship by emerging Mexican researchers and UC scientists and scholars in the early stages of their careers, after obtaining their Ph.D. In addition, the program seeks to support existing or developing binational academic networks by enhancing collaborative research projects between UC and Mexican faculty and institutions through the innovative involvement and training of new researchers. The postdoctoral fellows, home or graduating departments and institutions, and their hosts, host departments and institution/campuses are listed below.
