About the Fellowships
Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory invites outstanding recent Ph.D. recipients to compete for one of three 2007 Glenn T. Seaborg Postoctoral Fellowships. Students who expect to receive their Ph.D. degree by October 1, 2007 are also invited to apply. It is expected that Fellows will not be more than two years past their Ph.D. at the commencement of their fellowship.

Upon appointment, a Seaborg Fellow is given time to review the Laboratory’s research program and may choose to participate in any aspect of it. In addition to his/her salary, a Seaborg Fellow receives a $20,000 annual research supplement. These are three-year appointments with a competitive salary aligned to the scientific discipline of the Fellow.

The Laboratory conducts unclassified research across a wide range of scientific disciplines with key efforts in fundamental studies of the universe; quantitative biology; nanoscience; new energy systems and environmental solutions; and the use of integrated computing as a tool for discovery. It is organized into 17 scientific divisions and hosts four DOE national user facilities: The Advanced Light Source, The National Center for Electron Microscopy, The Molecular Foundry, and the National Energy Research Scientific Computing Center. Seaborg Fellows will join one of the scientific divisions and are encouraged to learn more about research opportunities afforded by them at the following web site http://www.lbl.gov/LBL-Programs/index.html
