Bellwether Postdoctoral Scholars

The Bellwether Postdoctoral Scholar Program is a two-year postdoctoral scholarship for exceptionally promising young researchers from a variety of information disciplines. Bellwether Postdocs are active participants in the Berkeley School of Information community, giving guest lectures and public talks about their research, organizing public talks for others, and participating in the research life of the school.

Bellwether Postdoctoral Scholars work with faculty mentors in related research areas, collaborating on faculty research programs and publications. They also conduct their own independent research, with support for their individual research and publications.
