The CONVERGE CDR program is excited to announce the launch of four funded postdoctoral fellowship opportunities for Highly Entrepreneurial Research Operators (HEROs).

These fellowships will form a core part of the CONVERGE CDR mission to inform and advance a responsible and equitable marine carbon dioxide removal (mCDR) sector in Canada.

HEROs will work at the intersection of science, data, policy, business strategy and community engagement—bringing a cross-sectoral approach to advancing this sector. We're seeking postdoctoral researchers with a passion for impact and a drive to apply their expertise in new, collaborative ways.

What the HERO Experience Offers:

  • Meaningful research aligned with the Ocean Frontier Institute’s strategic priorities
  • Immersive, cross-disciplinary collaboration with partners across sectors and communities
  • Tailored professional development in leadership, learning and innovation

These fellowships provide a unique opportunity to advance your cutting-edge research goals in climate solutions while developing leadership skills in a dynamic and supportive environment.

Are you the next HERO? Join us in shaping Canada’s ocean and climate future.
