JSA Postdoctoral Fellowship deadline coming up — a message from Ron Gilman
This year, thanks to the generosity of the JSA Initiatives Fund, we will for the first time have the chance to honor our finest postdocs with the $10,000 JSA Postdoctoral Research Fellowship!
The ground rules are:
- All entries must be emailed to harris@jlab.org by December 1, 2007.
- All nominees must be within 5 years of graduation, and in a postdoc or equivalent position at the time of nomination. JLab and theory postdocs are eligible to apply.
- Entries should include a research statement (3 page limit) and CV by the nominee, along with three letters of reference. The research statement should describe past work and future plans and should include a preliminary budget. All materials may be emailed in separately.
- The competition will be judged by the User Group Board of Directors, with input from an independent panel.
- The basis for picking the top candidate includes a record of accomplishment in physics, a planned high-impact Jefferson Lab physics program, and promise of further accomplishments in the Jefferson Lab research fields in the future.
- The Fellowship will be in the form of a research grant.
