Population Council Fellowships

The Population Council Fellowships are programs designed to advance the careers of public health, social science, and biomedical researchers globally. For over 70 years, these fellowships have supported individuals who have gone on to hold influential positions in government, non-governmental organizations, research institutions, and universities, shaping health and development policies, programs, and products worldwide. Building on this legacy, the programs aim to cultivate the next generation of leaders in their respective fields. The Population Council offers various fellowships, including those within the Center for Biomedical Research focusing on sexual and reproductive health drugs and delivery systems, the International Fellowship Program for social and behavioral science research talent in low- and middle-income countries, and the Gender and Education Initiative Post-doctoral Fellowship for research on education and gender equality.
