To American citizens and permanent residents: Below is an announcement out of the Biology Directorate (DBI) at NSF concerning postdocs in Microbiology. These include candidates interested in Geomicrobiology. An international component would probably strengthen an application. Check it out on the NSF website (www.nsf.gov). Contact me or a Program Director in the Division of Biological Infrastructure if you have other questions. Rich Lane Postdoctoral Research Fellowships in Microbial Biology Supports training and research on the basic biology of protozoan, microalgal, fungal, archaeal, bacterial, and viral species that are not generally considered to be model organisms, e.g., E. coli, Saccharomyces cerevesiae, TMV. The use of model organisms in comparative studies with non-model organisms is not excluded. Studies of the interactions of these microbes among each other and with plants and animals, e.g., symbiosis, may also be supported. Applicants are reminded that BIO does not support research with disease-related goals, including the etiology, diagnosis, or treatment of physical or mental disease, abnormality, or malfunction in human beings or animals. Animal or plant models of such conditions or the development or testing of drugs or other procedures for their treatment also are not eligible for support. Deadline: 1st Monday in October 2001 - 2003 Program Description: NSF 99-142 Point of Contact: DBI Program Officer H. Richard Lane Program Director, Geology and Paleontology National Science Foundation Ph. 703-292-8551 FAX: 703-292-9025 hlane@nsf.gov
