Hi all,
The University of Missouri has an exciting program in place to recruit postdoctoral fellows from underrepresented groups as potential future faculty. The Preparing Future Faculty<https://nam02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fgradschool.missouri.edu%2Fpostdoctoral-education%2Fpreparing-future-faculty-postdoctoral-program-for-faculty-diversity%2F&data=05%7C01%7Cj.wade%40missouri.edu%7C4f269f66616646febd7f08da8252c2fe%7Ce3fefdbef7e9401ba51a355e01b05a89%7C0%7C0%7C637965589386830681%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&sdata=wWEwIBx80Vh%2Bb6Lk20Xy%2FOdzLudFT%2Fw3BloPXHVJvOc%3D&reserved=0> program is a two year fellowship in one of the University of Missouri’s departments, with the ultimate goal of successful fellows joining the faculty. The School of Natural Resources is specifically looking for a postdoctoral fellow in agroecosystem modeling. This position is inclusive of both process-based crop models (e.g., APSIM or DSSAT) or statistically based models. Additionally, work in remote sensing of cropping systems or digital agronomy is also applicable.

Missouri has a wide range of crops, ranging from corn, soybean, and forage in the northern part of the state, with the additions of cotton, peanuts, and rice in the southeast. For successful candidates, the university has an active extension program, including dozens of on-farm strip trials<https://nam02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fextension.missouri.edu%2Fprograms%2Fstrip-trial-program&data=05%7C01%7Cj.wade%40missouri.edu%7C4f269f66616646febd7f08da8252c2fe%7Ce3fefdbef7e9401ba51a355e01b05a89%7C0%7C0%7C637965589386830681%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&sdata=7m8H3Uic8FSf3jsSSGS3SgqeezbUYqzNQ2INlrmeyLQ%3D&reserved=0> to complement our outlying research, education, and extension centers<https://nam02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fmoaes.missouri.edu%2F&data=05%7C01%7Cj.wade%40missouri.edu%7C4f269f66616646febd7f08da8252c2fe%7Ce3fefdbef7e9401ba51a355e01b05a89%7C0%7C0%7C637965589386830681%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&sdata=GQGqlXzZ24BLRRl7o5JKvx76JVB0Mm5lHefbT5hyD9M%3D&reserved=0>.
