National Postdoc Appreciation Week (NPAW) 2026

The National Postdoc Appreciation Week (NPAW) is an initiative sponsored by the National Postdoctoral Association to recognize the significant contributions that postdoctoral scholars make to U.S. research and institutions. The week starting at the third Monday in September was officially recognized as NPAW by the U.S. House of Representatives in 2010. Postdoctoral offices and associations around the world hold special events throughout the week to raise awareness and express gratitude for the great work of their postdoctoral scholars.
