Post-Doctoral Research Positions

National Center for Environmental Research (NCER) Post-Doctoral Research Program

NCER seeks a candidate to fill a federal three-year post-doctoral research position in support of activities related to the Council for Regulatory Environmental Modeling (CREM), a cross-Agency institution established to promote consistency and consensus among environmental model developers and users, thus helping to ensure that the Agency's model-based decisions are legally defensible and politically credible because they are based on the best available, practicable science.
The filing deadline for the position is April 30, 2006. [Read More]
