The office works together with the appointing departments, other Brown offices, and the Brown Postdoc Council, to achieve this mission.
Our Priorities
- Building postdoc community and identity
- Communication, marketing and recruitment
- Guiding postdoc policies and procedures
- Career and professional development activities and guidance
- Coordination across university units
- Advising on postdoc data collection
- Convening university stakeholders to address concerns and new opportunities
- Supporting pursuit of external funding opportunities (individual and programmatic)
- Adopting and influencing national best practices
Note that while the OUPA does not oversee Brown’s postdoc affiliates employed at our partner hospitals, we encourage their engagement in community building and professional activities offered through the OUPA.
