Postdoctoral Affairs is pleased to issue a call for nominations to acknowledge the contributions and importance of outstanding faculty mentors and postdoctoral scholars at the University of Arizona. 

Featured in Lo Que Pasa Newsletter! "The new Postdoctoral Affairs and postdoc association connect postdoctoral scholars with resources – and each other. Both resulted from the work of Jenny Hoit, a professor of speech, language and hearing sciences, whose time as a postdoc led her to improve the postdoc experience. "We're a Research I university and the work postdocs do contributes significantly to that status," she says."

Thank you to our amazing UAPA Executive Board for all their great work during the 2017-2018 year!

"We aim to help connect fellow Postdocs at UA, support their professional development and engage with the wider university community advocating on their behalf. We are founded and run by Postdocs and hope this site will be useful for you during your time at UA."

As an astronomy postdoc at Steward Observatory and a NASA Hubble Fellow, Dr. Shivaei studies early galaxies that were formed 10 billion years ago – only about 3 billion years after the Big Bang. The main questions that she tries to address in her research are: How do galaxies form and evolve throughout cosmic time? How does the stellar, gas, and dust content of galaxies evolve? How do early galaxies synthesis heavy elements and enrich their inter-stellar medium?

Dr. Thomas Moon is a postdoc at the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry.

The Postdoc Coffee Buzz was a success in Fall 2018! These Friday coffee meetups will be offered again in Spring 2019, starting January 11.
