Fellowship at Smithsonian Institution

2013 Interdisciplinary Post-Doctoral Fellowship in Stable Isotope
Sciences

The Office of Fellowships is offering an Interdisciplinary
Postdoctoral Fellowship in the area of stable isotope sciences.
Research proposals must integrate the use of stable isotopes (2H/1H,
13C/12C, 15N/14N, and 18O/16O) into their specific research
questions. Stable isotope analysis must comprise a significant
portion of the research. The successful applicant will conduct
analyses at one of the two Pan-Institutional isotope facilities
(OUSS/MCI Stable Isotope Mass Spectrometry Facility in Suitland, MD
or at the Smithsonian Tropical Research Institute, Panama City,
Panama). Applicants interested in this fellowship are strongly
encouraged to contact potential advisors/hosts at any of the
Smithsonian's various Museums and Research Units prior to proposal
preparation and submission. Prior Isotope Fellows are not eligible.
Please consult the research staff listed for the Museum, Research
Units, and Offices at the links to Smithsonian Opportunities for
Research and Study below.

Applicants must propose to conduct research in-residence for a
period of 12 months, at least 4 months of which will be spent
on-site at the MCI or STRI laboratory. Applicants must have
completed or be near completion of the Ph.D. Recipients who have not
completed the Ph.D. at the time of application must provide proof of
completion of the degree before the fellowship begins. Please go to
