[Air-L] Applications are open for CDT's Non-Residential Fellows program (2024)

[Dhanaraj Thakur]

Hi everyone,

The Center for Democracy & Technology <https://cdt.org/> (CDT) is now 
accepting applications <https://cdt.org/about/fellows/> for its 2024 
cohort of non-residential Fellows. Our work addresses several tech 
policy areas including the use of AI and the policy implications for 
privacy, free expression and content moderation, security and 
surveillance, and election integrity, among others.

The non-resident Fellows program is a great opportunity for researchers 
to use their work to inform important tech policy debates. This includes 
opportunities to publish their work, particularly for non-academic 
audiences; attending and potentially presenting at CDT events that 
include industry, government, civil society, and academic audiences; and 
potentially participating in CDT led events to directly engage 
policy-makers in the U.S., the EU, and elsewhere.

In addition, new Fellows will join an amazing network of researchers and 
academics <https://cdt.org/about/fellows/current-fellows/>. We encourage 
applications from interested persons who will commit to a two-year, 
nonresident engagement and possess a Ph.D., JD, or equivalent in their 
respective field of study. This can include but is not limited to 
communication, public policy, sociology, psychology, computer science, 
economics, law, anthropology, etc. Interested candidates should have 
experience working on tech policy issues in the U.S. and/or the EU and 
be affiliated with an academic institution at the time of their 
application.

Applicants should submit a cover letter, including areas of interest and 
how they are aligned with CDT’s work, resume, and one relevant writing 
sample which should already be published. Please use this link to submit 
your application 
<https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfai1I07O6AhCT4XW4J5pd6AAftsgPv1JzdQw4zdNPC6PTdGw/viewform?usp=sf_link>. 
If you have any questions please please contact us: research at cdt.org

Finally, feel free to share with relevant colleagues.


Thanks!

Dhanaraj
