Job description: * PhD positions at SISSA, Trieste, Italy **
Applications are invited for several 3-year PhD positions in Theory and Simulation of Condensed Matter (CM) at the International School for Advanced Studies (SISSA) in Trieste. The earliest deadline for selection is September 20th, 2006 (http://www.sissa.it/main/?p=AC_B1_C2&id=152). Admissions are based on entrance exams, which will take place in Trieste on October 4th and 5th, 2006 (some travel reimbursement is available). 2006 courses will begin November 7th, 2006.
Admissions for 2007 will also be possible without sitting the entrance
exam, based on purely paper selections (non-europeans only) at a later application deadline around March 10, 2007.
The CM curriculum in SISSA involves a strong training in basic many body theory, in numerical simulation of condensed matter, solid state physics, electronic structure and statistical mechanics, as well as a vigorous research activity in a variety of areas including those at http://www.sissa.it/cm
Faculty of the condensed matter theory and simulation Sector include : S. Baroni, A. Dal Corso, M. Fabrizio, S. Fantoni, R. Fazio, S. de Gironcoli, G. E. Santoro, G. Scoles, S. Sorella, E. Tosatti.
The School hosts the DEMOCRITOS National Simulation Center (www.democritos.it)
of CNR-INFM whose activities also involve most SISSA CM faculty members,
and an ad***ional faculty consisting of F. Becca, S. Cozzini, S. Fabris, and S. Moroni.
Scientific collaboration is lively with other major scientific institutions on the Miramare campus, including the Theoretical Physics Department of Trieste University (http://www-dft.ts.infn.it) and the
Abdus Salam International Centre for Theoretical Physics (ICTP)
(http://www.ictp.it), both with strong CM groups. In ad***ion, the ICTP runs on campus many conferences and schools each year on Condensed Matter related subjects.
Close contacts are entertained with experimental laboratories at the Elettra Synchrotron Light Laboratory and at the TASC/INFM Laboratory in the Trieste Basovizza campus, about 1/2 hour away from Miramare. A small theory group has been recently established in Basovizza under the aegis of DEMOCRITOS, providing a rich interdisciplinary scientific and educational playground.
Successful applicants will, irrespective of their nationality, gender, and creed be offered a fellowship that will enable them to pursue a first class PhD under the supervision and in close research contact with the faculty, in a stimulating environment of visiting scientists and postdocs.
All activities of SISSA are conducted in English, no knowledge of Italian is required. SISSA has trained PhDs in Condensed Matter Theory for about 25 years, and past SISSA students hold a very good scientific record. Several of them now occupy important positions worldwide.
Trieste and the Miramare campus offer a site of unique beauty, poised
right on the Adriatic seashore but close to the Carso hills (See eg
http://www.ts.camcom.it/ENGLISH/tourism.htm, http://www.triestetourism.it/).

PhD Studentships in Mathematics in Medicine - Cardiff
University
---------------------
Analysis of Dynamical processes for Test Assessment in Medical Genetics
This project offers an exciting opportunity for a high-calibre PhD
student
to work on interdisciplinary research in Cardiff School of Mathematics
and
Cardiff School of Medicine in the area of medical genetics.
With the availability of fast genotyping methods and genomic databases,
the
search for statistical association of single nucleotide polymorphisms
with a
disease has become an important methodology in medical genetics.
However,
even fairly rare genotyping errors can lead to spurious association
results
and loss of test power. Building on the student''s skills in
mathematical
and/or stochastic analysis, the project will follow on from a recent
study
which has identified the diffusion process on the space of genotype
distributions generated by genotyping errors and an underlying tensor
product structure, and invariant subsets in the case of an allele-based
error model. The intended research outcomes are an analytical
description of
the resulting type-I errors and test power, as well as a comprehensive
study
and classification of the diffusion process for the general error
model.
The application of mathematics in medicine is an area of growing
importance
and potential benefit. These results, while of a mathematical nature,
will
be highly relevant to practical medical genetics, as they provide a
general
overview of the situations in which genotyping error is either critical
or
innocuous.
This studentship is available under Cardiff University''s Richard Whipp
Studentships Scheme. It provides funding for three years, commencing
session
2006/7. For each of the three years, the University will meet the costs
of
the National Minimum Doctoral Stipend and the Cardiff fee at the
home/EU
rate (although non-EU applicants are also welcome to apply).
To discuss this project further, please contact:
Dr K M Schmidt
Email: SchmidtKM@cardiff.ac.uk

The closing date for applications is 30 June 2006. Application forms

PhD in Computer Simulation of Urban Growth - Cardiff
University
Computer Simulation of Urban Growth
This project offers an exciting opportunity for a high-calibre PhD
student to work on interdisciplinary research in Cardiff School of City and Regional Planning and Cardiff School of Computer Science.
A major challenge in both the developed and the developing worlds is to manage the growth of towns and cities in a manner that meets the economic and social requirements of citizens and of governments, while at the same time maintaining a sustainable environment. The development policies of national and regional levels of government aim to achieve this balance but, in practice, it is necessary to wait some years to find out whether policy objectives are met. There is a long tra***ion of computer simulations that
model the expected growth of population centres with a view to
increasing the chances of meeting development objectives.
Many urban simulation methodologies developed to date have proved to be either too simplistic or too complex. The purpose of the proposed research is to develop novel computer simulation methods that take an agent- or call-based approach and improve upon existing methods with regard to computational efficiency, theoretical justification, methodological transparency and representative accuracy. This is likely to involve working
with existing extensive data sources of cities and developing
calibrated and evaluated models.
Most research to date in the field or urban simulation has been based within geography and planning departments using a relatively limited set of simulation tools. The studentship, and the link between the Schools of Computer Science and City and Regional Planning, has the potential to help move the subject forward by exploiting computer knowledge that can be applied to develop more effective simulation techniques.
This studentship is available under Cardiff University''s Richard Whipp Studentships Scheme. It provides funding for three years, commencing session 2006/7. For each of the three years, the University will meet the costs of the National Minimum Doctoral Stipend and the Cardiff fee at the home/EU rate (although non-EU applicants are also welcome to apply).

Frontier Biosciences Summer School 2006
------------------------------------------
Osaka University Graduate School of Frontier Biosciences is pleased to
announce the opening of Frontier Biosciences Summer School for the
Summer 2006, with financial support by the 21-st Century Center of
Excellence (COE) award from the Ministry of Education, Culture,
Sports, Science and Technology (MEXT).
The Summer School consists of a week of intensive lectures by our
faculty, followed by one week of hands-on experience in a laboratory
of our faculty members.
(See our brochure (right) and faculty list and their research
interests page at: http://www.fbs.osaka-u.ac.jp/eng/labo/index.html).
The course is ideal for prospective foreign students considering a
longer stay as graduate students at our Graduate School. All foreign
students accepted in this course will receive round-trip airfare from
a major international airport in their country to Osaka University and
reasonable stipend to cover expenses during their stay. Accommodation
is provided at an off-campus facility. Please obtain a traveller''s
medical insurance in your country for the duration of travel, as we
are not able to cover this part of expense.
Applicants must submit a completed application form and supporting
materials as indicated by the deadline. We will review all eligibile
applcations and select approximately 15 to 18 foreign students.
Selection results will be notified shortly after the deadline.
