MIT women invited to apply for fellowship

The MIT Energy Initiative invites applications for the Clare Boothe Luce Postdoctoral Fellowships for Women in Energy at MIT. Support from the Henry Luce Foundation will provide two exceptional women with two-year postdoctoral fellowships for interdisciplinary study focused on energy topics beginning in the fall of 2008. The selected fellows will be top scholars from disciplines in which women are particularly underrepresented. Applications must be received no later than Nov. 9. For more information, please contact Robin Elices at relices@mit.edu or visit web.mit.edu/mitei/news/clare-fellowship.html#guidelines.
