Accelerate is offered in partnership with a postdoctoral fellow’s university, which administers their award. We recommend that fellows speak with their professor and institution about student status (“employees” or “trainees”), funding policies (“stipend” or “salary”), and potential deductions of benefits. Universities administer funds according to their individual institutional policies, which are flexible under Tri-Agency guidelines. If benefits are included, they may be deducted from either a fellow’s pay or the accompanying research funds.
