Smith Fellows 2010
Smith Fellows 2010 Call for Proposals Announced
The Society for Conservation Biology is pleased to solicit applications for
the David H. Smith Conservation Research Fellowship Program. These two year
post-doctoral fellowships enable outstanding early-career scientists to
improve and expand their research skills while directing their efforts
towards problems of pressing conservation concern for the United States.
Each Fellow is mentored by both an academic sponsor who encourages the
Fellow’s continued development as a conservation scientist, and a
conservation practitioner who helps to connect the Fellow and her/his
research to practical conservation challenges.
Fellows will spend up to four weeks per year during their fellowship
attending orientation and training events. These offerings provide
opportunities to cultivate professional networks and to gain better
understanding of applied research needs. Fellows will participate as a group
in three or more of these Program-sponsored meetings, conferences, or
professional development events each year.
The Program especially encourages individuals who want to better link
conservation science and theory with pressing policy and management
applications to apply. We envision that the cadre of scientists supported by
the Smith Fellows Program eventually will assume leadership positions across
the field of conservation science. Fellows are selected on the basis of
innovation, potential for leadership and strength of proposal.
The deadline for receipt of application materials is 18 September 2009. The
Program expects to select four Fellows in January 2010 for appointments to
start between March and September 2010. Fellowship awards include an annual
salary of $50,000, benefits, and generous travel and research budgets. For
detailed proposal guidelines, please visit

Shonda Foster, Program Coordinator, by emailing sfoster-at-conbio.org.
