Expedition Science gets more funding into climate research
and communicates your science in a way that inspires and engages everyone. From senior academics and policy makers to those just starting to become interested in the natural world.
We link researches and investors, finding money from foundations, businesses and private investors to get teams into the field and collect the data they need.
We are led by science. We only take projects forward that are putting genuine researchers into the field to collect data that will forward their projects and our understanding of climate science. So we need to assess the Researchers and projects we back, ensuring they are delivering genuine scientific impact.
We have a Science Panel for each of our four themes, Ocean, Polar, Forest and Mountain to assess every project, and we are seeking global individuals with diverse backgrounds, expertise, and perspectives to
ensure a comprehensive and inclusive evaluation process.
We want applications from all nationalities and science backgrounds, as long as your research is linked in some way to the environment or the climate.
Your application is to become a panel member, working beneath our panel chairs for only ONE of the four steering committees, either forest, mountain, ocean or polar.
Panel reviews will be conducted in English so please have a working proficiency.
Wherever you are on your academic journey your voice matters, and we encourage all applications.
Key Responsibilities:
Reviewing incoming research projects during quarterly meetings with diligence and impartiality.
Ensuring projects we put forward for funding are delivering genuine science impact and align with Expedition Science’s core values.
Providing timely and constructive feedback to unsuccessful applicants to enhance the quality of fieldwork proposals.
Upholding the highest standards of academic integrity and ethical conduct throughout the evaluation process.
