Doctorate Degree | Scholarship for Nigerians and Africans - Part 255

Postdoctoral Research Associate in Biophysics on 3D STEM, USA

/ January 24, 2011 Leave a Comment

The  Microscopy Group in the Materials Science and Technology Division at Oak Ridge  National Laboratory (ORNL) has a postdoctoral position available. We are  developing 3D scanning transmission electron microscopy, a novel method for  obtaining three-dimensional structural information about biological samples.  The technology is based on the principles of confocal microscopy but provides  higher resolution with the use of an aberration corrected scanning transmission  electron microscope (STEM). 3D STEM is a unique alternative for electron  tomography with potentially improved capabilities. The project is a collaboration  between ORNL and Vanderbilt University Medical Center (VUMC). The position is  on 3D STEM imaging, deconvolution, and data analysis.

Scholarship Application Deadline: Applications may be submitted throughout the year, and appointments may begin at any time.

/ January 24, 2011 Leave a Comment

The Computer Science and Mathematics Division (CSM) at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) seeks postdocs in the area of Software Application Tools to work in a programming environment for the petascale, and current and future ultra scale class platforms. This person will be part of the Application Performance Tools group, and will be expected to help contribute to bringing such an environment into being with technical contributions, as well as by working in collaboration with the user-community, industry, and the wider R&D community.
The Software Application Tools Developer will report to the Application Performance Tools Group Leader. The successful applicant will work with other staff members within the CSM and National Center for Computational Sciences organizations on providing a Programming Environment that meets the technical challenges posed by the petascale and exascale class of platforms, and that meets user requirement on these systems.

Scholarship Application Deadline: Applications may be submitted throughout the year, and appointments may begin at any time.

ARC Linkage Grant in Autoconfiguration of Critical Network Infrastructure, Australia: Mathematical Science

/ January 24, 2011 Leave a Comment

Applications are invited for the following scholarship leading to the degree of PhD in mathematical science.
The scholarship is supported by the Australian Research Council Linkage grant scheme and CQR Consulting.
Australia’s critical infrastructure, e.g., water and electricity, rely more and more on computer networks. The goal of this project is to improve the security of these networks. The focus of the work will be on mathematical representations of the security system’s elements, with a view to allowing network and security specification to take place at a high level, and be automatically implemented without dealing with the minutia of configuration of individual devices such as firewalls and servers.  The potential impacts of the project include improvements to security in vital power stations and water plants, as well as improvements in efficiency in these same areas.

Scholarship Application Deadline: 28 February 2011
