Connectionists: Applications are open for CDT's Non-Residential Fellows program (2023)

[Dhanaraj Thakur]

Hi everyone,

The Center for Democracy & Technology (CDT) is now accepting 
applications <https://cdt.org/about/fellows/> for its 2023 cohort of 
non-residential Fellows. Our work addresses several tech policy areas 
including the use of AI and the implications for privacy, free 
expression and content moderation, security and surveillance, and 
election integrity, among others.

The 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 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/1FAIpQLScgIlQKnlECHLVQ2-tDnXLWexH8vxG8Ao-WA3nTSZFTUiLGvw/viewform?usp=sf_link>. 
To request additional information please contact research at cdt.org

Feel free to share with relevant colleagues.


Thank you,

Dhanaraj
