Einstein Postdoctoral Fellowship Program 2009
EINSTEIN POSTDOCTORAL FELLOWSHIP PROGRAM 2009 CALL FOR PROPOSALS: The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA)-sponsored Einstein Fellowship Program provides an opportunity for highly qualified, recent postdoctoral scientists to conduct independent research that is broadly related to the scientific 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, GLAST, XMM-Newton, INTEGRAL, and IXO (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 research program to the scientific return of the Physics of the Cosmos missions. A Fellow’s program in this area may be specifically appraised for continuation of the fellowship after the second year. Each Fellow will choose the United States host institution in which the research will be conducted.
The Fellowship provides support for up to three years at an annual stipend of approximately $60,500 plus benefits (as described below), and some allowance for travel and other research costs. Contingent upon NASA funding, up to 10 Einstein Fellowships will be awarded in 2009.
Proposals will be reviewed by an independent panel of scientists. The Einstein Fellowship Program is administered by the Chandra X-Ray Center (CXC) for NASA, in cooperation with institutions throughout the United States. Awards will be made to support each Einstein Fellow through a Host Institution designated by the Fellow.
An application for the Fellowship consists of a research proposal and supporting documentation, as described below. Applicants must have received their Ph.D. or equivalent degree in 2006 or later. The deadline for receipt of applications is FRIDAY NOVEMBER 7, 2008 (5:00 pm EST). Award offers will be made by February 1, 2009, with the Fellowships expected to begin in September, 2009.
