STAT Wunderkinds is a chance to celebrate early-career researchers who are not yet independent scientists or program leaders. We want to honor postdocs, interns, fellows — people who have terminal degrees in hand, but aren’t running their own research programs yet.
Nominations for the 2025 STAT Wunderkinds have officially closed. A member of STAT’s editorial team will only contact you should your nominee be selected. The final class of 2025 STAT Wunderkinds will be announced in mid-October. Stay tuned!
This short nomination form requires the following:
• A nomination letter from the person submitting the candidate
• A PDF of a research paper by the nominee
• The nominee’s CV or resume
• A headshot of the nominee
• Contact information for the nominator, nominee, and nominee’s institution
The deadline to enter was 5 p.m. ET, June 27, 2025. For full eligibility criteria, please see our FAQ. If you still have questions, email [email protected]. Please read our Terms and Conditions.
