 Sloan Fellowship on Aging and Work

The Sloan Fellowship is a new interdisciplinary, postdoctoral training program that will address the challenges of aging societies and labor force participation. In broad terms, fellows’ projects should shed light on the current challenges of working longer and potential solutions to the ways in which the United States’ public and private sectors will need to adapt to an aging work force. Two finalists will be selected. Open to U.S. and Canadian candidates only.
