National Evolutionary Synthesis Center (NESCENT) call for proposals

The National Evolutionary Synthesis Center (NESCENT) calls for proposals for up to 10 PostDoctoral and 5 Sabbatical fellowships. Please see www.nescent.org for details about applications.

PostDoctoral and Sabbatical Fellowships will support ambitious, synthetic research on any aspect of evolutionary biology and relevant disciplines.

Sabbatical applicants should take note of our full-salary "targeted sabbatical" program to attract individuals interested in developing community computational infrastructure for evolutionary biology, and for evolutionists from Minority Serving Universities.
  • Open to fellows of ALL nationalities
  • Research projects should be carried out primarily on site
  • We will begin reviewing applications on February 1, 2005
  • We will stop accepting applications on March 1, 2005
  • Starting dates will be before September 2005
Proposals can include any type of synthetic project, but should not include time at the bench or in the field.
Projects can be entirely theoretical and may involve developing analytical methods and software.
Projects can also be purely empirical, synthesizing data from:
  • the literature
  • existing databases
  • new databases built with NESCENT help
  • visits to museums or other data centers
  • cooperating laboratories anwhere in the world
