Applications are invited for Smithsonian Postdoctoral Fellows at the Smithsonian Environmental Research Center. The Smithsonians distinctive combination of field research facilities, museum archives, and internationally recognized expertise in ecology, biological conservation, systematics, and paleobiology, provide unprecedented opportunities for synthetic, big-picture insights into some of our most challenging issues, including habitat loss, climate change, and invasive species.
Smithsonian Fellows receive an annual stipend of $42,000 plus allowances. Each position is expected to run for two years, with the second year of funding contingent upon satisfactory progress. Applicants are encouraged to secure sponsorship from one of SERCs principal investigators prior to submitting an application for these competitively-awarded fellowships. Applications are due January 15. Please contact Fellowship Coordinator Daniel Gustafson at [email protected], or 443-482-2217, for further details. http://www.serc.si.edu/pro_training/fellowships/postdoc.aspx
