NIH Summer Course: Strengthening Causal Inference in Behavioral Obesity Research Identifying causal relations among variables is fundamental to science. Obesity is a major problem for which much progress in understanding, treatment, and prevention remains to be made. Understanding which social and behavioral factors cause variations in adiposity is vital to producing, evaluating, and selecting intervention and prevention strategies. In addition, developing a greater understanding of obesity’s causes requires input from diverse disciplines including statistics, economics, psychology, epidemiology, mathematics, philosophy, and behavioral or statistical genetics. However, applying techniques from these disciplines does not involve routine well-known ‘cookbook’ approaches. Rather, an understanding of the underlying principles is required so that the investigator can tailor approaches to specific and varying situations. The course will be held July 29 – August 2, 2019. Find more information here.

NIH Sumer Course: The Mathematical Sciences in Obesity Research The mathematical sciences including engineering, statistics, computer science, physics, econometrics, psychometrics, epidemiology, and mathematics qua mathematics are increasingly being applied to advance our understanding of the causes, consequences, and alleviation of obesity.  These applications do not merely involve routine, well-established approaches easily implemented in widely available commercial software. Rather, they increasingly involve computationally demanding tasks, use and development of novel analytic methods and software, new derivations, computer simulations, and unprecedented interdigitation of two or more existing techniques. Such advances at the interface of the mathematical sciences and obesity research require bilateral training and exposure for investigators in both disciplines. This course will be held June 3-7, 2019. Find more information here.

Geological Society of America (GSA) On To the Future Travel Awards The On To the Future (OTF) program provides partial funding to attend the Geological Society of America (GSA) Annual Meeting, 22-25 September 2019 in Phoenix, Arizona. Open to students and recent graduates from diverse backgrounds who have never attended a GSA Annual Meeting before. At the meeting students have the option to be paired with a mentor, attend special sessions including a full day professional development workshop, and meet GSA leadership. GSA encourages low-income, minority, first-generation, non-traditional, women, veterans, LBGTQ, students with disabilities, and others to apply. The deadline is 31 May. Learn more about eligibility and the application process. For questions contact: Tahlia Bear, Diversity and Career Officer, tbear@geosociety.org

Presidential Diversity Postdoctoral Fellowship Binghamton University is a world-class institution that unites more than 130 broadly interdisciplinary educational programs with some of the most vibrant research in the nation. Our unique character – shaped by outstanding academics, facilities and community life – promotes extraordinary student success.

Increasing campus diversity is one of Binghamton University’s most important strategic priorities. Binghamton is meeting this challenge with the establishment of a program of Presidential Diversity Postdoctoral Fellowships that will allow the university to better recruit highly qualified candidates for research and scholarship in disciplines that have found it difficult to attract a diverse faculty. This fellowship program mirrors the goals of the SUNY faculty diversity program which advance diversity and inclusive excellence by encouraging the recruitment, retention and promotion of outstanding scholars from different backgrounds, including individuals from groups who have historically been underrepresented in higher education

Our goal is to develop top-tier candidates when faculty positions appear in these departments, so that they may remain at Binghamton in a tenure track capacity when their postdoctoral work is completed.  Each fellowship appointment is up to two years. Persons interested in this position should apply online here.

Canada/USA Matchcamp Positions Canada/USA Mathcamp ( www.mathcamp.org) is a summer program for talented high school students from all over the United States, Canada, and the rest of the world. At Mathcamp, students interact with world-class mathematicians, explore advanced topics in mathematics, and find a true intellectual peer group. The mentor job is a hybrid between a teaching position and a camp counselor role. Your primary responsibility is to teach great classes, and you’ll be doing this in the context of a residential summer program: you live, eat, and play with the campers. It’s a lot of work and a lot of fun. As a mentor at Mathcamp, you get an amazing teaching experience: there is no set curriculum, so you create your own classes and teach the math you’re interested in. From group theory to projective geometry, from complex analysis to cryptography, from fractals to voting theory – there is an abundance of mathematics that can be taught (with a little imagination) at camp level. You’ll have support (in both curriculum design and pedagogy) from master teachers, and you’ll work with students who are exceptionally smart and engaged.

Since women and minority students often face a shortage of role models in mathematics, we are especially eager to recruit mentors from these groups. For more information on the position and how to apply, visit  http://www.mathcamp.org/mentor/.

At Mathcamp, students interact with world-class mathematicians, explore advanced topics in mathematics, and find a true intellectual peer group. The mentor job is a hybrid between a teaching position and a camp counselor role. Your primary responsibility is to teach great classes, and you’ll be doing this in the context of a residential summer program: you live, eat, and play with the campers. It’s a lot of work and a lot of fun. As a mentor at Mathcamp, you get an amazing teaching experience: there is no set curriculum, so you create your own classes and teach the math you’re interested in. From group theory to projective geometry, from complex analysis to cryptography, from fractals to voting theory – there is an abundance of mathematics that can be taught (with a little imagination) at camp level. You’ll have support (in both curriculum design and pedagogy) from master teachers, and you’ll work with students who are exceptionally smart and engaged.

Since women and minority students often face a shortage of role models in mathematics, we are especially eager to recruit mentors from these groups. For more information on the position and how to apply, visit  http://www.mathcamp.org/mentor/ .

NSF Design and Development Workshop A NSF and Development Launch Pilot is conducting a semi-supported workshop called: Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion in the Earth and Environmental Sciences: Supporting the Success of All Students. This workshop will focus on supporting the success of all students, including addressing the diversity of your program’s student body, evaluating and strengthening your program design, and incorporating inclusive and equitable teaching practices. Based on changing demographics, we can no longer rely on the same methods of attracting and nurturing students, as there will be fewer of the demographic groups the sciences have traditionally drawn from. Additionally, our science and society need diverse geoscientists, and our professional ethics demand equitable educational opportunities for all. Earth and environmental science programs need to appeal to a more diverse population to remain a thriving and relevant community poised to meet the needs of our society. Find more information here .
