Colorado Boulder is seeking a junior post-doctoral
researcher (Research Associate) to join the diverse
and innovative space physics group. The appointment
will be jointly funded by the Magnetosphere Multiscale
(<span class="caps">MMS</span>) mission, which
launched in March 2015, and the Van Allen Probes
mission, currently entering the extended mission
phase.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><span

magnetosphere and at magnetospheric boundaries, and
radiation belt studies.</p>
