Become a Pickwick Club Member

Help the National Sleep Foundation continue to attract promising new investigators to the field of sleep research by making a special contribution to support its Postdoctoral Research Fellowships. These highly competitive two-year fellowships are supervised by recognized mentors in the field and allow their recipients to dedicate the majority of their time to their research.

Since 1996, the NSF Pickwick Fellowship program has funded more than 30 young investigators who have gone on to have exemplary and thriving research careers. Your contribution to sleep research can ensure the continuity of postdoctoral research fellowships and help to launch the careers of promising researchers. Contributions to support research at the $100 level and above qualify you as a member of the NSF Pickwick Club (named for Charles Dickens' novel The Pickwick Papers in which a character with sleep apnea is first presented).

Pickwick Club members receive a subscription to NSF’s Sleep Medicine Alert newsletter (targeted to medical professionals).
