long-range planning and to enable new directions in future Antarctic
research.

Applicants must have a PhD or equivalent experience, as evidenced by
lead-authorship in peer-reviewed publications and/or demonstrated
leadership role in science projects in any field of science or science
support pertinent to the activities of the Division of Antarctic
Sciences. Also, applicants must have at least six years of research,
research support, research administration, science support and logistics
