One of our technical staff members identified you as someone with research
interests that overlap with ours, and who might have students looking for
postdoctoral research opportunities. If so, please consider passing this
information along. Details can be found below. A one-page flyer suitable
for posting is also attached.
Best regards,
Ron Boisvert

============================================================
===============================
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is offering
awards for postdoctoral research, which may be of interest to Ph.D.
students or postdoctoral researchers in your department. These awards are
provided as part of a program called the Postdoctoral Research
Associateship Program, which is administered for NIST by the National
Research Council of the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and
Medicine.
This program gives recent Ph.D.s the opportunity to work on site at NIST
labs in Gaithersburg, MD, or Boulder, CO on projects related to NIST’s
mission in measurement science, standards, and technology. Participants
perform research leading to publication, access NIST’s excellent and often
unique facilities, and collaborate with leading scientists and engineers.
Prospective applicants first identify a Research Adviser compatible with
their interests from a large group available. They should then contact that
person to discuss potential research projects. Once a willing adviser has
been identified, the applicant can submit a research proposal through the
NRC Research Associateship Program’s online application system. Reviews are
conducted twice each year (with application deadlines of February 1 or
August 1), and results are available to applicants six to eight weeks
later.
Successful applicants, or “Research Associates,” serve a two-year term,
with an annual salary of $69,533, along with health insurance, relocation
benefits and an allowance for professional travel. NIST provides access to
facilities, equipment, and funding for supplies.
Please note that awardees must hold U.S. citizenship and have held the
Ph.D. less than five years at time of application. Also, all male
applicants born after Dec. 31, 1959 must have registered with the Selective
Service System or hold an exemption.
Research opportunities within NIST’s Information Technology Laboratory are
available at:

fellowships-itl
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me at
boisvert(a)nist.gov. I hope that some of your Ph.D. students or postdoctoral
researchers will take advantage of this opportunity.
