Publishing Internship at Frontiers - Ecological Society of America The Ecological Society of America (ESA) is urgently looking for an intern, to be based at its Washington, DC, office, to help with the production of one of the Society's journals, Frontiers in Ecology and the Environment (www.frontiersinecology.org).
The internship is a great opportunity to learn about the scientific publishing process and how journals are produced. Depending on experience and aptitude, the intern will be involved in many different aspects of journal production, including editing/proofreading, writing, podcasting, and image research, as well as other day-to-day activities of the editorial office. The internship includes a small stipend. The successful applicant should have a knowledge of ecology and/or environmental science; an interest in, or experience with, publishing or science writing would be an advantage. Resume and names of two references, should be sent electronically to Dr Sue Silver, Frontiers Editor-in-Chief ([email protected]). Please specify availability between now and at least late December. Closing date for applications is October 19, 2012. The ESA is a non-partisan, nonprofit professional society, founded in 1915, to promote ecological science. Applicants unfamiliar with the ESA are encouraged to visit www.esa.org
