We are excited to announce the launch of a second BioGeoSCAPES Fellows cohort funded by the NSF AccelNet award. This program brings together an international, interdisciplinary cohort of early career (postdocs and senior graduate students) researchers working in the areas of ocean metabolism, biogeochemical cycling, biological oceanography, chemical oceanography, and marine microbiology. We encourage applicants from both experimental and modeling backgrounds. Each Fellow will each receive a professional development award that can be used for travel related to laboratory exchanges, courses, workshops or conferences. Fellows will participate in monthly networking events for at least one year, as well as an in-person workshop in summer or fall 2025. Postdoctoral researchers and senior graduate students from any nation who are working on BioGeoSCAPES-relevant research are eligible to apply.
