Get matched →The Postdoctoral Fellowship in Conservation Science is a two-year program designed to provide recent PhDs in chemistry and other physical or material sciences with experience in conservation science.
The 2026–2028 Postdoctoral Fellow will be an integral part of the Conservation Institute's Materials Characterization research group studying the diverse range of organic materials in cultural heritage. The Postdoctoral Fellow will engage in new and existing projects and research partnerships concerned with characterizing organic materials, primarily paints and plastics. An important part of the research will be developing analytical protocols and advanced data evaluation methods that can benefit other researchers in the field. Information from this research will aid in developing conservation treatment strategies and in technical art history studies. The applied nature of this work means that the Fellow will collaborate closely with researchers from other institutions and practicing conservators.
