it essential for the U.S. Department of State to have knowledgeable scientific input. This fellowship is a unique opportunity for a scientist to contribute scientific and technical expertise to the Department and raise awareness of the value of scientific
input. In turn, scientists broaden their experience by interacting with policymakers in the federal government and learning about the foreign policy process. AIP Fellows have worked on topics as varied as critical infrastructure protection, export controls,
use of remote sensing imagery, biotechnology and the safety of agricultural products, as well as European, Russian, and Chinese science policy.

in the Department when interviewing for an assignment, to broaden the reach and visibility of scientific expertise within the Department. Application components include a letter of intent, resume and three letters of recommendation. More information and a
link to our online application portal are available at the <a href="http://aip-info.org/1ZJN-3O9BX-E29EK3-1RPXWD-1/c.aspx" target="_blank">
