In addition to our postdoc program, we offer a handful of highly-competitive fellowships at LLNL. Fellows are free to pursue their own research agenda under the guidance of a senior staff scientist who serves as a mentor. Additionally, fellows are expected to conduct their research in a collaborative, multidisciplinary manner with others in a team environment. Our fellows have conducted research in laser science and plasma physics, biomedical engineering, cosmochemistry, and a variety of other cutting-edge fields.
