Postdoctoral appointments are ordinarily made for one year, and are renewable annually based on satisfactory performance and availability of funding.
Postdoctoral fellows have certain obligations to their mentor, the group in which they are working, the Department with which they are associated, the sponsor whose funds support them, and the University.
In such cases the postdoctoral scholars will be permitted to retain notes and records associated with their research and publish their findings subsequent to leaving the University provided an appropriate acknowledgement is made to the University's contribution to the work (e.g.

 Postdoctoral researcher - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A postdoctoral appointment (colloquially, a "post-doc") is a temporary research position held by a person who has completed his or her doctoral studies.
Postdoctoral appointments commonly last for periods ranging between six months and five years, and have traditionally been dedicated purely to research; so-called "teaching post-docs" are now being offered for those who seek to focus on teaching in their careers, however.
Postdoctoral appointments last from 1-5 years on average with a decreasing yield of between 17-20% of postdoctoral fellows obtaining a permanent faculty position [1, 2].
