Goal
The goal is to advance actinide science in a comprehensive project that ties research with ORNL’s missions.
Mechanism
The Seaborg Initiative obtains funding internally through LDRD and externally from sponsors. The program provides approximately half-time support and a modest amount of M&S funds. The appointments cover a two-year period.
Candidates
Successful candidates must be approved for division funding by the ORNL postdoctoral program and be performing research that is tied to actinide or isotope science.
How to apply
Both US and non-US citizens are eligible to apply, but US citizenship may be required for some research. Postdocs interested in submitting an application for a postdoctoral position must follow the steps outlined below.
