About the Fellows Program
This program brings together an international, interdisciplinary cohort of early career researchers (postdocs and senior graduate students) working in experimental and modeling backgrounds in the areas of ocean metabolism, biogeochemical cycling, biological oceanography, chemical oceanography, and marine microbiology.
Each Fellow receives a professional development award that can be used for travel related to laboratory exchanges, courses, workshops, conferences or other collaborative efforts. Fellows participate in monthly networking events for at least one year, as well as an in-person workshop. Read more here about the first cohort's August 2024 workshop hosted at Santa Fe Institute.

Early-Career Scientists in Interdisciplinary Research
A new Nature Microbiology article by BioGeoSCAPES Early Career Fellows and leaders highlights the importance of including early-career scientists in shaping interdisciplinary programs. The concept was developed at the first cohort Fellows workshop at the Santa Fe Institute in August 2024. Click here to read more about the workshop.
