The University of Michigan Department of Ecology & Evolutionary Biology (https://lsa.umich.edu/eeb) invites applicants for a bridging postdoctoral program: the UM Presidential Postdoctoral Fellowship Program (PPFP). Faculty members in EEB have successful records of providing a nurturing and productive postdoctoral experience through the PPFP. We are especially interested in future colleagues who engage in research in the fields of 1.) plant biodiversity or 2.) population and evolutionary genetics (with an emphasis on theoretical approaches).
The University of Michigan Department of Ecology & Evolutionary Biology views this postdoctoral fellowship as providing an exceptional opportunity to recruit potential new faculty to the University by offering the possibility of either a postdoc alone or a combined postdoc and tenure track faculty appointment.
N.B. The application for the PPFP opens September 1. In addition to the materials required by the PPFP, applicants should submit their materials directly to EEB by October 1.
Eligibility
- Ph.D. in a relevant field
- Demonstrated potential for high scholarly impact
- Evidence of successful classroom teaching experience (as a student or professional)
- A strong commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion
- Candidates with tenure track appointments are not favored in the selection process unless there is a clear explanation of how an award to the candidate would further the goals of the PPFP
How to Apply:
1. Send materials to the PPFP (http://presidentspostdoc.umich.edu/#) via their online application, and
2. Send materials electronically to EEB by emailing Molly Hunter at mollyiz@umich.edu.
