The Gaylord Donnelley Postdoctoral Fellowship supports postdoctoral associates in their research on biodiversity or a combination of environmental science with conservation and public policy. Created to honor the memory of Gaylord Donnelley, Yale Class of 1931, a conservationist dedicated to advancing research and education, the fellowship was established by Mr. Donnelley’s widow Dorothy and his son Strachan, is funded by an endowment from the Gaylord and Dorothy Donnelley Foundation and the Donnelley Family, and is administered by YIBS. These appointments are intended for individuals who have been awarded (or who soon will be awarded) a Ph.D. degree within the past three years.
The newly established Hutchinson Environmental Postdoctoral Program, named in honor of G. Evelyn Hutchinson, the father of modern ecology, is intended to advance knowledge of the environment in relation to global change and to support the environmental priorities in Yale’s strategic plan for the sciences. For 2020–2022, cohorts of postdoctoral fellows, representing multiple disciplines will focus on two broad themes: Theme 1—Environment and Evolution & Theme 2—Climate and Greenhouse Gases.
