Affiliate Faculty Application
We welcome affiliate faculty applications from Harvard faculty members who would like to engage more concretely with the Kempner and who have research or educational interests that overlap with core areas of the Kempner’s mission.
Affiliate status at the Kempner is for Harvard faculty who pursue research aligned with the Kempner’s mission and who wish to deepen connections with the Kempner Institute. We encourage faculty considering affiliate status to first participate in Kempner events and to connect with Kempner faculty and fellows prior to applying. You can subscribe to and attend any of our public events without affiliate status.
While affiliate status comes with several benefits, affiliates are not currently granted access to the Kempner Institute cluster. However, Kempner GPUs may still be available to some faculty via requeue. Learn more about accessing GPUs via requeue.
Faculty who wish to stay informed about Kempner news, events and funding opportunities should join our mailing list.
In order to apply for affiliate status, applicants must be faculty at Harvard who pursue research aligned with the Kempner’s mission, and have have principal investigator rights at Harvard University.
Harvard Medical School hospital-based faculty must hold an academic rank of Assistant, Associate, or full Professor.
Affiliate faculty may engage with the Kemper Institute in a variety of ways based on their area of expertise, interest, and availability, including:
- Join in Kempner Institute educational activities including planning or participating in courses or bootcamps.
- Participate in Kempner Institute events, including speaking at or planning events including our seminar series, annual symposia, and workshops.
- Serve on Kempner Institute committees.
- Volunteer to host and mentor undergraduate or postbaccalaureate research students.

Interested candidates should submit an affiliate application. Applications are accepted on a rolling basis.
