SUMMER PROJECT STIPENDS FOR YOUNG SCIENTISTS AT THE INTERNATIONAL INSTITUTE FOR APPLIED SYSTEMS ANALYSIS -------------------------------------------------------------------
Funding is offered for young scientists interested in collaborative research on the evolutionary ecology of (marine or freshwater) fish and its interplay with fisheries.
As in previous years, Ph.D. students can apply for participation in the Young Scientists Summer Program (YSSP), hosted - from June 1 to August 31, 2004 - by the International Institute for Applied Systems Analysis (IIASA), Laxenburg, Austria. Training is based on close interaction with the advising senior scientists, and typically leads to a publication in an international journal, and, where applicable, to a chapter in a candidate's Ph.D. thesis. In general, IIASA's summer program offers exceptional opportunities for acquiring experience in an international research environment. The Institute is located in the former summer palace of the Habsburgs, ca. 10 km south of Vienna.
Young scientists from Austria, China, Egypt, Estonia, Finland, Germany, Japan, the Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Russia, Sweden, and the USA are eligible for personal stipends providing full funding. For students from other countries, travel and accommodation stipends can be arranged on a case-by-case basis.
While successful applicants will usually pursue a Ph.D. program at their home institutions, exceptions for master students and young postdocs are certainly possible. Projects relating to any of the nine areas described under "Research Activities" on www.iiasa.ac.at/Research/ADN are eligible. Chances of success are increased when candidates informally discuss, prior to their application, specific research interests and plans with the project leader of the Adaptive Dynamics Network, Dr Ulf Dieckmann ([log in to unmask]).
Review of applications will commence immediately. To receive full consideration, online applications should be completed before January 22, 2004 (after that date, please apply by sending an email to Ulf Dieckmann).
