Under this congressional Act, the National Institutes of Health (NIH) awards postdoctoral fellowships to individuals in a full-time science research capacity.<br /> <br /> <strong>1995:</strong> American Association for the Advancement of Science developed <em>Science's Next Wave</em>, a weekly web magazine published by the research journal <em>Science</em> for "Early Career Scientists." Later developed the Postdoc Network, sponsored by the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation, connecting postdocs and administrators from different institutions.<br /> <br /> <strong>1995:</strong> A group of concerned postdocs at UCSF formed the Postdoctoral Scholars Association (PSA) - a grassroots organization seeking improvements in the training and work climate of postdocs. The UCSF Graduate Dean supported this initiative and offered funding as needed.<br /> <br /> <strong>1996:</strong> The PSA conducted a survey of UCSF postdocs. The survey results were published on the web and submitted to the UCSF Graduate Division Dean. The survey addressed many postdoc challenges including inadequate mentoring, low salaries, and fear of unemployment as the market for scientists was not strong at that time.<br /> <br /> <strong>1997:</strong> In response to postdoc requests since the early 1990s, the UCSF Career Center was opened to help postdocs attain faculty positions. Because of lack of staffing the Career Center closed from December 1999 through May 2001. It was re-opened in May 2001 with a staff of three and a new website for complete online services. Not only was the PSA instrumental in the founding of the Career Center office but also it continues to contribute funding to the Career Center.<br /> <br /> <strong>January 1997:</strong> The University of California Council of Graduate Deans (COGD) formed a “UC Workgroup for Postdoctoral Affairs” to address the needs and concerns of the UC postdoc community throughout the UC system. <br /> <br /> <strong>March 31, 1998:</strong> Association of American Universities (AAU), Committee on Postdoctoral Education "Report and Recommendations." The committee created a series of recommendations to increase the "fairness and consistency in the management of postdoc programs," including a definition of a "postdoctoral scholar." <br /> <br /> <strong>February 26, 1998:</strong> National Science Board report published: <a data-mce-href="http://www.nsf.gov/nsb/documents/1997/nsb97235/nsb97235.htm" href="http://www.nsf.gov/nsb/documents/1997/nsb97235/nsb97235.htm" target="_blank">The Federal Role in Science and Engineering Graduate and Postdoctoral Education</a>.<br /> <br /> <strong>Fall 1998:</strong> Council of Graduate Deans, University of California, publishes "Report on Postdoctoral Education at UC." Report made recommendations for the administration of postdoc programs, benefits and appointments.<br /> <br /> <strong>December 2, 1998:</strong> National Science Foundation, Division of Science Resources Studies, "Has the Use of Postdocs Changed?" A study about shift in the professional role of a postdoctoral appointment. <br /> <br /> <strong>1999-2000:</strong> PSA conducted a small survey on postdoc average earnings and whether earnings meet cost of living needs. The survey findings were incorporated into set of recommendations submitted to the Dean of Graduate Studies and the Graduate Council (a committee of the UCSF Academic Senate). The recommendations were then passed onto the Academic Senate and distributed to UCSF faculty.<br /> <br /> <strong>2000:</strong> Committee on Science Engineering and Public Policy (COSEPUP) published its findings from a nation-wide survey of postdocs.<br /> <br /> <strong>November 2000:</strong> "The Ongoing Challenges of the UCSF Postdoc Association" article published in <em>Science's Next Wave</em>.<br /> <br /> <strong>February 2001:</strong> The Graduate Division hired an assistant dean for postdoctoral affairs to develop and administer the UCSF Office of Postdoctoral Affairs, now called the Postdoc Office.<br /> <br /> <strong>March 2001:</strong> "NIH Statement in Response to the NAS Report: Addressing the Nation's Changing Needs for Biomedical and Behavioral Scientists."<br /> <br /> <strong>April 2, 2001:</strong> Memo: “University of California, San Francisco Proposed Policy Modifications for the Appointment and Mentoring of Postdoctoral Scholars," recommended to the Academic Senate from the Dean of the Graduate Division.
