Applications call for Stanford Center on Food Security and the Environment Fellowship 2021. This postdoctoral fellowship seeks promising young scholars with a demonstrated ability to do innovative and rigorous work related to global hunger, poverty alleviation, and environmental degradation. Successful candidates are expected to lead projects of their own design; while also interacting with other faculty and students at FSE.
The Center on Food Security and the Environment encourages candidates from both the social and natural sciences to apply.
