The John C. Danforth Center on Religion and Politics seeks applications from junior scholars and recent PhD graduates for up to four postdoctoral fellowships in residence at Washington University in St. Louis. The appointment is for one year, renewable for a second year. Eligible applicants must complete the PhD by July 1, 2020, and have completed it no earlier than January 1, 2015. In exceptional cases a qualified applicant holding a JD, without the PhD, may be considered. Research associates will spend most of their time pursuing research and writing for their own projects. They will also serve the intellectual life of the Danforth Center on Religion and Politics through participation in its biweekly interdisciplinary seminar and events hosted by the Center. Their teaching responsibilities will include: 1) developing one course per year to complement and contribute to the Center’s curricular offerings, and 2) possibly assisting in one additional course each year (depending on the particular teaching needs of the Center).

The Immanent Frame is pleased to announce a few changes to its editorial board, which was first constituted in March 2016 and continues to work alongside Editor Mona Oraby and Editorial Associate Olivia Whitener to create intellectually provocative content for the site.
