  1. Hi Dude,

    Nice information! Postdoctoral is an academic research degree or scholarly research conducted by a person who has recently completed doctoral studies, normally within the previous five years. It may be funded through an appointment with a salary or an appointment with a stipend or sponsorship award.

    Thanks.
