Email Text:
We are accepting applications for the JSA Promising Young Scientist program for the academic year 2019-2020 which is funded by the JSA initiative fund. The application deadline is on 5 pm on Friday, May 31st, 2019. For more information, see the user group wiki at

The program will assist chosen applicants in preparation for faculty interviews. We will assist the candidates in crafting a good colloquium or seminar talk, and collect constructive criticism from the audience. The selected applicant will travel to a host institution to present the talk, participate in a mock interview, and an opportunity to teach a class session. Feedback will be provided for all the components of the mock interview at the end of the visit. All applicants (accepted or not) will receive feedback on application materials (cover letter, CV and, statements). Several past participants who have accepted faculty positions have reported that the JSA Promising Young Scientist program has provided excellent practice for their successful job interviews.

This should include the number of years you have worked as postdoctoral research, whether you are primarily interested in applying to a teaching or research institution, and whether you have a preference for a particular host institution in this program.
* A curriculum vitae (including a list of publications)
* A research statement (max: 2 pages)
* A teaching statement (max: 1 page)
