2014 Interdisciplinary Post-Doctoral Fellowship in Stable Isotope
    Sciences

The Office of Fellowships and Internships 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, 18O/16O, 34S/32S) 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. More information about this
program can be found online:

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. Applications
must be submitted by Jan 15, 2014. Application information can be
found online:
