Job description

Membership Summary

Staff or Postdoc positions are for those whose primary appointments are at the home institution of their supervising Consortium for Advanced Science & Engineering (CASE) scientist/scholar, but who are involved in projects supported by grants obtained through the University.

  • Please note that UChicago CASE Staff- or Postdoc-at-Large status is restricted to affiliation with a specific UChicago CASE (Senior) Scientist/Scholar group or for staff affiliated with a specific UChicago research center or institute (e.g., Globus).
    UChicago CASE Postdocs and Staff may have access to UChicago facilities and charge their time to grants without a subcontract but they will not have PI status. The at-Large membership, therefore, is linked to that of their sponsoring CASE/UC PI.
