[ES_JOBS_NET] Future Faculty in the Physical Sciences Postdoctoral Fellowship, Princeton University

[Christine Wiedinmyer]

Future Faculty in the Physical Sciences Postdoctoral Fellowship
Princeton University invites applications for the newly established Future Faculty in the Physical
Sciences (FFPS) Fellowship. We seek a diverse cohort of early career scientists who will
conduct research in physics, broadly defined to include the subdisciplines of astrophysics,
biophysics, and geophysics and planetary physics, independently or in collaboration with
Princeton faculty, postdoctoral researchers and students. The Fellowship aims to increase
excellence at Princeton by bringing scholars with unique backgrounds and insights, whose work
will contribute to the promotion of groups that have been historically, and are presently, under-
represented in physics and related fields.

Candidates who have demonstrated a strong
commitment to remedying the historical under-representation of people of color and women in
the physical sciences by promoting inclusion, equity, and diversity through teaching, advising,
mentoring, advocacy, or public outreach are especially encouraged to apply.


FFPS Fellows will have a primary home in the Department of Physics, of Astrophysical
Sciences, or of Geosciences, and will be part of an actively mentored research community across
institutional affiliations, including the Princeton Center for Theoretical Science, the Center for
the Physics of Biological Function, the Princeton Gravity Initiative, and other Centers and
Programs.

The Fellowship includes an annual research fund. Appointments will be made at the https://mail.google.com/mail/u/2?ui=2&ik=c1885f3044&attid=0.2&permmsgid=msg-f:1776482178176857601&th=18a75520fc0b3601&view=att&disp=inline
postdoctoral or the associate research scholar rank. Postdoctoral appointments will be for one
year, renewable annually based on satisfactory performance and funding, for a total of up to
three years; associate research scholar appointments will be for three years. The expected starting
date is September 1, 2024, although this is flexible. A PhD in the physical sciences or a related
field is required. Interested persons should submit a curriculum vitae, a bibliography, a statement
of research interests and plans, and should provide contact information for three references by
November 1, 2023, 11:59pm EST.

A personal statement and/or a description of the applicant's work in broadening opportunities in
the field should be included as a separate section of the research statement. Applicants must
apply via the web at https://puwebp.princeton.edu/AcadHire/position/31881.

Letters of recommendation will also be handled through this site. All applications received by November 1,
2023, 11:59pm EST will be fully considered, but applications will continue to be accepted until
the position(s) are filled. Only submissions through the application website will be considered.
For further inquiries, contact astropd at princeton.edu.
