EINSTEIN POSTDOCTORAL FELLOWSHIP PROGRAM

Applications for Einstein Fellowships are now closed.

The Einstein Postdoctoral Fellowship program, sponsored by NASA, awards Fellowships to recent Ph.D.'s (since January 1, 2007) in astronomy, physics, and related disciplines. Einstein Fellows hold their appointments at a Host Institution in the U.S., for research that is broadly related to the mission of the NASA Physics of the Cosmos program as addressed by any of the missions of this program. These include high energy astrophysics relevant to the Chandra, Fermi, XMM-Newton, and International X-ray Observatory (formerly Constellation-X) missions, cosmological investigations relevant to the Planck and JDEM missions, and gravitational astrophysics relevant to the LISA mission. This research can include new observations or archival studies with these missions as well as related theoretical studies and studies of sources from these missions at other wavelengths. The main criterion for proposal selection is the contribution of the proposed program of research to the scientific return of the Physics of the Cosmos missions. The Fellowship duration is three years (subject to review after the second year and to availability of funds from NASA).

Application Instructions

• The Physics of the Cosmos web site has information about the Physics of the Cosmos missions.
• The Call for Proposals (CfP) for the Fellowship Program, provides full details about the program and the application procedure.
• Submitting Proposals:
  There is a link on the Call for Proposals page
• Research Activity Summaries: Some institutions, which have indicated that they are interested in participating in the Einstein Fellowship Program as host institutions, have provided Research Activity Summaries.

The Einstein Fellows Symposium

The Einstein Fellows present highlights of their work once a year at the Einstein Fellows Symposium (formerly Chandra Fellows Symposium), which is open to all interested people. The Symposium for 2009 will be held Tuesday-Wednesday, October 27-28, 2009 at the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics.

Further information about the Einstein Fellowship Program can be obtained preferably through the Helpdesk or alternately through e-mail to Fellowship Program or to Nancy Remage Evans (nevans@head.cfa.harvard.edu).

CHANDRA AND FERMI POSTDOCTORAL FELLOWSHIP PROGRAMS
