Fifteen (47%) hold academic appointments, including 8 (53% of academic appointees) at research-intensive institutions and 7 (47%) at primarily undergraduate institutions. An additional 6 fellows (19%) conduct research in industry or research institutes, while 2 (6%) conduct academic research as non-faculty research scientists and 2 (6%) have entered private practice. The remaining trainees have pursued diverse career and training pathways, including science policy, additional postdoctoral or clinical training, science education, law, entrepreneurship, and other professional or personal pursuits. These outcomes demonstrate the range of career pathways pursued by trainees following completion of program-supported training.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_separator border_width=&#8221;3px&#8221; accent_color=&#8221;#DD9933&#8243;][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Independent Research and Career Development Support<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>During the past decade, 12 of the 32 trainees who completed program appointments (37.5%) obtained independent postdoctoral research or career development awards during their period of program support.
