2. NASA-ROSES Volunteer Reviewer Page Established.
To increase the pool of un-conflicted reviewers we are seeking subject matter experts to serve as mail-in reviewers of proposals and/or in-person reviewers to engage in discussions at a face-to-face panel meeting. New researchers (including post doctoral fellows) are welcome to apply as they provide fresh insight from people close to the most current research. Just follow the links below to the volunteer review forms and indicate the fields in which you consider yourself to be a subject matter expert and click the boxes. If your skills match our needs for this review NASA will contact you to discuss scheduling.
We are currently seeking reviewers for:
ROSES 2014 Heliophysics programs
ROSES 2014 E.3, The Exoplanet Research Program
ROSES 2014 C.2 Emerging Worlds

3. NASA Post-doctoral Program
The NASA Postdoctoral Program (NPP) provides opportunities for scientists and engineers to conduct research largely of their own choosing, yet compatible with the research opportunities posted on the NPP Web site.
Selected by a competitive peer-review process, NPP Fellows complete one- to three-year Fellowship appointments that advance NASA's missions in earth science, heliophysics, planetary science, astrophysics, space bioscience, aeronautics and engineering, human exploration and space operations, and astrobiology.
An example of one of the research opportunities in planetary science is: www3.orau.gov/NPDoc/Catalog/18314
Applicants must have a Ph.D. or equivalent degree in hand before beginning the fellowship, but may apply while completing the degree requirements. U. S. citizens, Lawful Permanent Residents, and foreign nationals eligible for J-1 status as a Research Scholar may apply.
Stipends start at $53,500 per year, with supplements for high cost-of-living areas and for certain academic specialties. Financial assistance is available for relocation and health insurance, and $8,000 per year is provided for professional travel.
Applications are accepted three times each year: March 1, July 1, and November 1.

4. Graduate Student Research Assistant Positions at Hampton University.
Recent funding development enabled multiple graduate research assistant position openings at Hampton University's Department of Atmospheric and Planetary Sciences. We seek to fill these openings for Fall 2014. The department offers M.S. and Ph.D. degrees in Atmospheric Sciences, and Planetary Science.
Currently available funding supports modeling and space-based remote sensing observation of Earth and other planets. Visit our website at:
cas.hamptonu.edu/ and send inquiries to kunio.sayanagi "at" hamptonu.edu. Start your application process here: www.hamptonu.edu/apply/gradadmission.cfm
5. From History to Science in the Early Modern Atlantic.
Please join us Tuesday, April 29th, (9 am - 7 pm) for a one-day symposium exploring the Early Americas' origins of the scientific revolution. The symposium will explore the role of indigenous people, ethnographers, and naturalists in the Spanish Atlantic in the development of early modern science. We will have a keynote lecture by Jorge Cañizares Esguerra (University of Texas at Austin), two plenary lectures by José Pardo Tomás (Spanish National Research Council) and Carlos Viesca Treviño (Mexico National University) and presentations by María Portuondo (Johns Hopkins University), Marcy Norton (George Washington University), Ralph Bauer (University of Maryland) and Jaime Marroquín Arredondo (George Washington University).
