Updated November 26, 2024
Many departments, laboratories and centers (DLCIs) at MIT have individuals who have self-identified as the postdoc key administrative contact(s), that is, the lead administrator(s) for postdocs and postdoc-related issues. If your DLCI does not have a key contact listed, you can contact the Administrative Officer or Human Resources Administrator listed on the DLCI website for additional information.
If the contact for your DLCI needs to be updated, please submit changes to postdocservices@mit.edu.
