Postdoctoral fellows conducting scientific research will have the opportunity to work at the Washington Clean Energy Testbeds alongside world-class faculty from the University of Washington, and to receive joint mentorship from partners at National Labs, and industry users of the Washington Clean Energy Testbeds. This position is a full time, 12-month, Postdoctoral Scholar position. The fellowship carries a discretionary research budget of $10K/yr.
