NASA has announced a rare opportunity for a summer faculty fellowship at the Johnson Space Center Human Health and Performance Directorate. The NASA ideas* Faculty Fellowship information and application form are found at: https://www.nasa.gov/hrp/ideas-faculty-fellowship/.

Biomedical Research & Environmental Sciences Division Chief, Judith Hayes, posted that ideas* = inclusion, diversity, equity, accessibility, and space exploration.  

The goals of the NASA ideas* Faculty Fellowship include enabling accessibility for under-represented scientists in space research by expanding our reach among diverse populations through non-traditional faculty partnerships. We believe NASA research and technology objectives are enriched through visiting faculty engagements as we leverage a diverse exchange of ideas to solve challenges in human space exploration. Finally, this faculty experience is expected to augment academic excellence in STEM education by infusing NASA content into classroom curriculum.

 The NASA ideas* faculty Fellowship application requires:

1. Two-page application
2. Curriculum Vitae
3. Letter of Recommendation from the Dean

Deadline for submission is May 20, 2022. Send your application, CV, and letter of recommendation to: jsc-health-performance-lab@mail.nasa.gov

This quick turn around means those interested should act immediately!
