The program provides scholarships through the following initiatives:

The Zuckerman Postdoctoral Scholars Program

attracts high achieving postdoctoral scholars from premier universities in the United States to do research at one of seven Israeli universities. Once they complete their research, many Zuckerman postdocs are expected to accept faculty positions at top North American universities, weaving a network of academic collaboration and goodwill that will greatly benefit US Israeli scientific cooperation.

The Zuckerman Israeli Postdoctoral Scholars Program

provides additional support to Israeli researchers who have been accepted to a postdoctoral program with a stipend at an American university.
