Brief description of research areas being targeted by the Institution for the EIA initiative (with specific websites, if available):
|
|
The FAS Center for Systems Biology at Harvard is interested in hosting Early Independence Awardees in the Bauer Fellows program. Bauer Fellows develop new experimental techniques, apply existing and novel techniques to interesting biological problems, and develop new analytical and theoretical tools for converting genome-wide data into knowledge about biology. They come from a variety of backgrounds, including biology, physics, chemistry, mathematics, computer science, and engineering. Because we strongly believe that the search for broad biological principles requires a combination of experiment, theory and computation, we are particularly interested in recruiting Fellows with broad scientific interests and a taste for collaboration. Like other Bauer Fellows, the successful Early Independence Awardee will be fully immersed in the scientific community of the fellows’ program, and will profit from its proven mentoring structure and the Center’s outstanding facilities and shared equipment. More information can be found at http://sysbio.harvard.edu/csb/jobs/fellow.html

Description of process for prospective EIA candidates (if available):
|
|
A university committee will interview suitable candidates, most likely on Oct 31 / Nov 1, and select applicant(s) for Harvard’s Early Independence Award nomination. Candidate(s) who secure the Harvard nomination will apply through Harvard for the Early Independence Award in January 2013. Applicants who are awarded the Early Independence Award can start as Bauer Fellows as early as fall 2013.
