New at UOP |

VSP announces the
selection of 10 new postdoctoral fellows under the NOAA Climate
and Global Change Postdoctoral Fellowship Program.
The objective of the program is to help create the next generation
of researchers in climate science, and pairs recently graduated
postdoctorates with host scientists at U.S. institutions to
work in areas of mutual interest. It was a very competitive
year, with a record number of applications, and we congratulate
the new appointees. We also thank the Steering Committee for
their efforts in this important endeavor
