The Consumer Reports Digital Lab is now accepting applications for paid, non-resident fellows to study the effects of connected products and services.
We conduct research on a wide range of digital consumer protection issues, from the behavior of connected appliances to the data practices of major internet platforms. Through this fellowship program, we seek to support new work in the field, and develop tooling and infrastructure to power ongoing research.
Anyone working in public interest technology is welcome to apply. Fellows will have the opportunity to collaborate with a diverse community, leverage CR’s physical labs and testing infrastructure, and communicate findings to manufacturers, policymakers, and the public. The deadline to apply is March 28th, and the application is quick and easy.
Please share with anyone who might be interested. And if you have any questions, drop us a line at digitallab@cr.consumer.org.
