Perks
Perks are passive abilities that improve your character in some way. There are different categories of perks: some you select when you level up (you get a new one every third or fourth level, depending on if you have the Skilled Trait or not), some are awards for completing certain quests, and others are tied to a specific weapon or item and unlocked by your skill levels.

Level up perks
If you don't have the Skilled trait, you get to choose a new perk every third level (so level 3, 6, 9, etc), up to and including level 24. If you do have the skilled trait, you only get a perk every fourth level (level 4, 8, 12, etc), up to and including level 24. Skill related perks require 100 in that skill to unlock.
So you need 100 doc or FA to unlock Faith Healer, Living Anatomy (that one also requires awareness), Field Medic and Dr. Strangelove.
You need 100 traps to unlock Evil Scientist and Light Step.
You need 100 sneak to unlock Watchtower and Bloodthirst.
The perks you can choose from are these:
