Arnold Arboretum Postdoctoral Fellowships

The Arnold Arboretum of Harvard University invites early career
scientists to apply for a unique opportunity to start a research career
as independent postdoctoral fellow while gaining training and connections
within the framework of a top-tier academic environment. The Katharine
H. Putnam Fellowship in Plant Science supports scientists focused on
utilizing the Arnold Arboretum's living collections of woody plants
to study any area of plant science.  The Global Change Postdoctoral
Fellowship supports researchers that tackle any area of global change
science utilizing the myriad resources of the Arnold Arboretum.

The Arnold Arboretum of Harvard University and its urban landscape in
Boston are particularly well-suited for global change and plant science
research. It is both an outdoor museum of the world's temperate trees
and other woody plants grown in a public open space, all within sight
of the Arboretum's state-of-the art research facilities.
