Grant Overview
Priority Outcomes for Postdoctoral Research in Oregon
The Foundation's Grants to Postdoctoral Research in the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences aim to advance research in these fields and broaden the participation of underrepresented groups. In Oregon, the priority outcomes for these grants are closely tied to the state's unique demographic and economic characteristics.
Oregon's diverse population, which includes a significant proportion of rural communities and a growing urban population in cities like Portland, presents opportunities for research that can address the complex social, behavioral, and economic challenges facing the state. The Oregon Office of Rural Health, a key state agency, has identified the need for research that can inform policy and practice in rural areas, where healthcare disparities and economic development challenges are particularly pronounced.
One of Oregon's distinguishing geographic features is its extensive coastline and the economic importance of coastal industries such as fishing and tourism. Research that examines the social and economic dynamics of these industries, and how they intersect with broader state and national trends, is particularly relevant. For example, a postdoctoral researcher might investigate the impact of climate change on coastal communities, or the economic benefits of sustainable fishing practices.
Aligning Research with State Priorities
To achieve the priority outcomes for this grant, research projects should align with Oregon's state priorities, including the Oregon Legislature's focus on economic development, education, and healthcare. The Oregon Higher Education Coordinating Commission, another key state agency, has emphasized the importance of research that can inform policy and improve outcomes in these areas. By supporting postdoctoral research that addresses these priorities, the Foundation can help drive positive change in Oregon.
Applicants should also be aware of the state's existing research infrastructure, including the University of Oregon and Oregon State University, both of which have strong programs in the social, behavioral, and economic sciences. By leveraging these resources, researchers can ensure that their work is grounded in the latest knowledge and methodologies.
Evaluating Success in Oregon
The success of postdoctoral research grants in Oregon will be evaluated based on their potential to advance knowledge in the social, behavioral, and economic sciences, as well as their potential to broaden the participation of underrepresented groups. In Oregon, this might involve research that addresses the needs of rural or minority communities, or that seeks to understand and address the disparities that exist in areas such as education and healthcare. Applicants should be prepared to demonstrate how their research aligns with these priorities, and how it will contribute to positive outcomes for Oregonians.
