The UK Theoretical Chemistry Summer School is aimed at providing a broad-based introduction to key concepts and techniques that underpin research in theoretical and computational chemistry. The School is generously sponsored by the Engineering and Physical Science Research Council (EPSRC), and supported by the Royal Society of Chemistry. When is it?The Summer School will take place between the 5th and 17th of September 2010. The deadline for applications is the 14th of May 2010. Where is it?The Summer School lectures will take place in the Department of Chemistry with accommodation and meals in St. Catherine's College, Oxford Who should come to it?The School is designed for postgraduate students in theoretical or computational chemistry, or those with a joint interest in theory and experiment, typically in their first or second years of research. Who pays for it?The number of places at the School is naturally limited. Attendance is free for students at UK Universities who hold EPSRC studentships or who would otherwise qualify for EPSRC funding. A limited number of full cost places may be available for other students.

Travel is not included. | | Register to read more... | 50 (2 votes, average 5.00 out of 5) | Tuesday, 03 February 2009 00:00 | The department of Bioengineering is a 5* research rated department based at South Kensington and has a strong track record in areas such as Physiological Mechanisms, Biomedical Systems, and Neurotechnology. Its thriving PhD community, large undergraduate population, and strongly multi-disciplinary academic staff build an ideal scientific and internationally competitive environment for our PhD programme. We invite applications for two Research Council funded (BBSRC) studentships to start in October 2009. One of the studentships will be industry supported (CASE). | | Register to read more... | | 47 (2 votes, average 4.00 out of 5) | Thursday, 26 February 2009 22:20 | Theoretical Physics of Soft Active Matter
A fully funded PhD position in the theory of soft active materials is available at the Department of Mathematics, University of Bristol for UK/EU students, starting in October 2009 (though an earlier start is possible). The project is part of an international collaboration and will require the student to spend a significant amount of time in the USA (Syracuse, NY) as well as to make a number of trips to Stellenbosch, South Africa. | | Register to read more... | 46 (2 votes, average 4.50 out of 5) | Thursday, 26 February 2009 21:37 | On behalf of L’Oreal UK and Ireland, the Royal Institution of Great Britain, the UK National Commission for UNESCO, the Irish National Commission for UNESCO and the UK Resource Centre for Women in Science, Engineering and Technology Applications for the 2009 L’Oreal UK and Ireland For Women In Science fellowships are now open. L’Oréal UK and Ireland, the UK National Commission for UNESCO, the Royal Institution of Great Britain, the Irish National Commission for UNESCO, and the UK Resource Centre for Women in SET have partnered together to provide a dedicated UK and Ireland For Women In Science Fellowship Programme for women scientists at postdoctoral level to enable and/or facilitate promising scientific research in the life or physical sciences. | | Register to read more... | |
