Postdoctoral Fellowship; Earth Institute at Columbia University; New York, NY; USA

Applications for The Earth Institute (EI) Postdoctoral Fellowship program for 2012-2012 are now being accepted. The EI Fellows program provides innovative postdoctoral scholars with the opportunity to build a foundation in one of the core disciplines represented within the Earth Institute (i.e. social, earth, biological, engineering, and health sciences), while at the same time acquiring the breadth of cross-disciplinary expertise needed to address critical issues related to sustainable development. Specific areas of research include food security, energy systems, climate change impacts,
poverty reduction, disease, and environmental degradation. The program offers a unique intellectual surrounding that fosters cross-disciplinary interaction, research and education.

The application can be found on the EI Fellows webpage. Also see an earlier ISEE post for more information about EI.

Deadline for application is November 15, 2012.
