Postdoctoral Fellowships in Polar Regions Research: Postdoctoral Fellowships in Polar Regions Research, offered by the Office of Polar Programs (OPP), to support training and research on any aspect of scientific study of the Antarctic and/or the Arctic. The program separately offers travel grants so that persons otherwise eligible to apply for the fellowships may first visit prospective sponsoring scientists at their organizations. The program develops and trains early-career scientists in polar regions research with concomitant goals to: * support innovative research in emerging areas; * introduce new investigators to research in the polar regions; * encourage interdisciplinary research; * foster activities that create broader impacts for science and society; and * increase the participation of underrepresented groups in polar regions research.
