University faculty, or those scheduled to be appointed to the standing or non-standing faculty by June 20, 2013, are invited to apply to be selected as Penn’s nominee for the Greenwall Faculty Scholars Program in Bioethics by October 17. A Selection committee organized by the Provost’s Office will nominate one applicant for the award.
The Greenwall Faculty Scholars Program in Bioethics is a career development award to enable outstanding junior faculty members to carry out original research that will help resolve important policy and clinical dilemmas at the intersection of ethics and the life sciences. This research will also put Faculty Scholars in a position to help set public policy and standards of clinical practice.
To learn more about the award and eligibility criteria, please visit www.greenwallfsp.org/index.htm
To be considered by the Penn Selection Committee, applicants must submit a three-page letter of intent that includes (1) a description of their research proposal, particularly its significance, how it will be carried out, and how it is likely to have an impact on public policy or clinical practice; and (2) a personal statement describing their goals in the field of bioethics. This letter should be double-spaced and in type no smaller than 12-point.
The applicant should also submit a curriculum vitae and a cover page including the project title and applicant’s contact information.
Applications to the selection committee are due Wednesday, October 17 at 5 p.m. and should be submitted to Jen Lising via lising@exchange.upenn.edu |
