NRC’s Postdoctoral Fellowship Program offers promising young scientists the opportunity to work alongside internationally recognized research leaders. The program provides access to unique world-class facilities and the opportunity to work alongside multi-disciplinary teams of expert researchers and technicians on projects of critical importance to Canada. PDFs will carry out research on innovative research projects, with opportunities for career development (publications and/or industry interaction). 12 projects have just been announced.
PDFs will be offered appointments to the staff of the National Research Council on a term basis and will be offered salaries and benefits currently available to researchers. As a guide, the current annual Ph.D. recruiting rate is $64,437. In addition PDFs will be allocated a travel fund to support their work.
Candidates should have obtained a Ph.D. (or equivalent) within the past three years (PhD received on or after July 1, 2015) or expect to complete their PhD within 6 months of appointment. To be eligible, a candidate will be required to submit their CV, their PhD transcript, a list of publications, a statement of interest in the project, and three reference letters.
Guidelines can be found here. The application deadline is May 10, 2018 - 23:59 Eastern Time.
