               Visiting Research Fellow
               The James S. McDonnell Foundation

               The James S. McDonnell Foundation, a major
               private philanthropy supporting research in
               education and the behavioral and biomedical
               sciences, is seeking an energetic, resourceful
               professional to fill the position of Visiting Research
               Fellow (VRF).

               The VRF will work closely with the President and
               the Program Officer on projects related to the
               Foundation's current national and international
               programs and assist in identifying new program
               opportunities related to the Foundation's interests.
               The VRF will be responsible for developing
               the Foundation's technological capabilities,
               specifically in the use of the Internet and other
               communication systems.  The VRF will be
               encouraged to develop a research project relevant
               to the Foundation and the VRF's interests that includes
               using the Foundation to develop a model
               system of how foundations and non-profit
               organizations can best incorporate technology to
               achieve their mission and enhance their productivity
               and efficiency.

               The position will be filled by a recent graduate of a
               doctoral program in psychology, cognitive
               science or cognitive neuroscience interested in
               exploring career opportunities in academic
               administration, private philanthropy, or science
               policy.  The successful candidate must possess
               superior oral and written communication skills and
               expertise in and enthusiasm for the application
               of computer and communication technologies.  The
               VRF must be able to represent the
               Foundation at national and international meetings
               with senior representatives of other funding
               agencies, senior scientists, and high-level science
               administrators.  The position is for one year,
               with the possibility of renewal for a second.  The
               anticipated start date is July 1, 1996.
               Competitive salary and benefits.  Additional
