Postdoctoral Fellows Sample Clauses
The 'Postdoctoral Fellows' clause defines the terms and conditions governing the appointment, responsibilities, and rights of postdoctoral researchers within an organization or under a specific agreement. It typically outlines eligibility criteria, duration of the fellowship, compensation, and expectations regarding research activities and reporting. By clearly establishing the framework for postdoctoral appointments, this clause ensures both the institution and the fellow understand their obligations, thereby promoting transparency and minimizing potential disputes.
Postdoctoral Fellows. (eligible to teach up to three (3) Reserve Courses per academic year);
Postdoctoral Fellows. A Postdoctoral Fellow must hold a PhD or equivalent qualification. They will work on project/s requiring a significant degree of skill, initiative, independence and originality of thought, which creatively extends the bounds of existing knowledge. The employment of a Postdoctoral Fellow is fixed term because it is always dependent on research project funding streams. The fixed term of employment for a Postdoctoral Fellow can be up to five years, dependent on the length of the research project and availability of funding.
Postdoctoral Fellows. Postdoctoral Fellows appointed for the first time are appointed at PD1 on the Postdoctoral Fellow salary scale or higher with relevant knowledge/experience as determined by the Academic Head. Advancement to the next step in the Postdoctoral Fellow grade shall occur after 12 months on the previous step.
Postdoctoral Fellows. All Postdoctoral Fellows shall enroll in employee benefit plans for which they are eligible according to the terms of those plans.

Postdoctoral Fellows. Single and long-term research visits (e.g., 6-12 months). The time spent in Europe will be in addition to (rather than in lieu of) their NSF-funded postdoctoral fellowship (usually 2 years in duration). > The European Research Council Executive Agency (ERCEA) solicits expressions of interest from Principal Investigators (PIs) holding ERC grants in hosting U.S.-based scientists to contribute to their teams for short or longer periods with the travel expenses between US and Europe covered by the NSF. > The ERCEA sends to the NSF a listing of the interested PIs/teams, together with the publishable description of their respective ERC-funded projects.
Postdoctoral Fellows special conditions

(i) A training and development plan must be developed in consultation with the Postdoctoral Fellow. The plan will be designed to facilitate the development of the Fellow's capabilities to those expected of an independent researcher and opportunity will be provided for the Fellow to apply those capabilities in their work, as they develop. CSIRO Enterprise Agreement 2017 - 2020 58
(ii) The training and development plan will include defined opportunities for formal involvement in research planning, conference attendance, publication and review of scientific papers and fully funded training courses for skills development, unless otherwise agreed between CSIRO and the Fellow.
(c) Except as provided in clause 18.4, a person appointed as a Postdoctoral Fellow is classified at a minimum of CSOF Level 4.2. CSIRO may appoint the Fellow at ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇, where the Fellow has demonstrated ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇ capabilities in prior postdoctoral work experience and CSIRO determines that there is scope to upgrade the role specification to a ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇ standard.
(d) Where consecutive Postdoctoral Fellowships are offered the previous Fellowship will be regarded as continuous for the purposes of access to rewards including performance and development steps and promotion.
