Lawrence Fellowship is a highly-competitive postdoctoral position at LLNL that is open to all technical disciplines. Fellowships are awarded to candidates with exceptional talent, scientific track records, and potential for significant achievements.
Lawrence Fellowship details
Typically, two to four fellowships are awarded each year, and the awards are for three years. Fellows are free to pursue their own research agenda under the guidance of a senior staff scientist who serves as a mentor. The fellows most often conduct their research in a collaborative, multidisciplinary manner with others in a team environment.
How to apply: The application is web-based and includes a CV, a statement of technical interests, three letters of recommendation, and transcripts. Applications are accepted beginning in early August (click the link at the end of the post to apply).
Key Selection Criteria:
- The statement of technical interests,
- letters of recommendation, and
- your scientific track record (publication record) are all very important.
Candidates who reach the pool of finalists are invited for a two- day interview that includes a seminar about their current research work. The seminar and interview are important for demonstrating excellent communication skills, particularly the ability to successfully explain specialized topics to a broadly-based, interdisciplinary audience.
