College PhD Scholarships Studentship The Graduate

Although dermatophytes cause the majority of superficial fungal infections in humans and animals, little is known about the pathogenicity or basic biology of these filamentous fungi at the molecular level. The planned project sets out to identify and characterize the role of putative, major transcriptional regulators in dermatophytes. This work should provide fundamental insights into environmental adaptation mechanisms of these clinically important fungal pathogens.

We expect:
• a Master’s degree (or equivalent) in Natural Sciences (e.g., Biology, Biomedical Sciences,
Biotechnology or related fields). Candidates about to obtain their degree are welcome to apply.
• a high interest in molecular/microbiological research and basic skills in applying current techniques of these fields
• high motivation and interest in joining one of the interdisciplinary research areas of the JSMC
• creativity and interest in shaping your own thesis project
• an integrative and cooperative personality
• very good communication skills in English (the language of instruction at the JSMC).

We offer:
• a highly communicative atmosphere within a scientific network providing top?level research
conditions
• a PhD stipend paid for three years according to the rules of the DFG (German Research Foundation) as well as generous research funding
• a comprehensive mentoring program with efficient supervision by a team of supervisors
• a top?level PhD training program with courses in state?of?the?art research technologies and soft skills

Erasmus Mundus High School Scholarships Grant in Lotus Project for South

Lotus is an Erasmus Mundus Action Two Partnership (EMA2) of European and South-East Asian Higher Education Institutions (HEI) and Associations aiming at fostering mutual enrichment and better understanding between the EU and South-East Asia (China, Vietnam, Cambodia, Myanmar, Indonesia, Thailand), through the exchange of persons, knowledge and skills at higher education level and to co-operate in the following program activities:

• Mobility of undergraduate and graduate students
• Mobility of PhD students
• Post-doc mobility
• Academic and administrative staff mobility

The types of mobility to be funded are:

• For students: undergraduate, master, doctorate and post-doctorate mobility opportunities
• For academic staff: exchanges for the purposes of teaching, practical training and research

This project is to give South-East Asian students and staff the possibility to go to a European University to improve, enrich, learn, experience, .... their own knowledge and skills.

Please bear in mind that the scholarships are only granted to South-East Asian students and staff coming to Europe.

The grant covers:

• Monthly subsistence allowance
• Travel ticket
• Insurance
• Tuition fee

To enable students to benefit in a linguistic, cultural and educational way from the experience of pursuing academic studies in another country, all students should have a thorough command of English (this can only be proven by means of internationally recognized documents, p.e. IELTS certificate, TOEFL, First Certificate of Cambridge, an English diploma, a Degree obtained in English). Please note, however, that this also depends on the language requirements of the host universities within the Lotus project

PhD Scholarship Distributed and Cognitive Robotics, Portugal

IST-EPFL Joint Doctoral Initiative
Call for PhD Student Applications
Distributed and Cognitive Robotics Focus Area

The Instituto Superior Técnico (IST) and the École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL) offer a Joint Doctoral Initiative in 7 cutting edge research domains.:

• Biological and Medical Imaging
• Distributed and Cognitive Robotics
• Computational and Stochastic Mathematics
• Antennas and EM devices for Wireless Applications
• Environmental Hydraulics
• Plasma Physics
• Architecture

The focus area of Distributed and Cognitive Robotics is highly interdisciplinary and involves two main research lines: (i) distributed, networked robots and (ii) cognitive personal assistant robots and devices capable of interacting with humans and understanding human actions.
* Distributed, networked robots – Recent advances in robotics, computer vision, artificial intelligence, statistical signal processing and control theory, as well as the advent of miniaturized sensors and actuators, powerful embedded processors, and wireless communication systems, have afforded engineers with the methodologies and technologies to design and build networks of autonomous robots and systems. The applications include monitoring and operations in hazardous or remote environments (ocean, space, contaminated areas, areas destroyed by natural disasters, etc), in industrial or civil engineering structures (pipeline monitoring and surveillance, bridges, dams), and in services (buildings, public areas, traffic monitoring and surveillance).
* Cognitive personal assistant robots – The massive deployment of sensors and robotic devices (e.g. smart appliances, robotic assistants) in offices, homes and urban environments, as opposed to factories, places the interaction with humans and the interpretation of human activity in a central role (e.g. ambient intelligence, health-care, surveillance). This challenge opens a new landscape
of research directions in learning, human action recognition and cognition in a multidisciplinary approach involving (e.g. humanoid) robotic systems, as well as neuroscience and psychology. The research domains in this Focus Area include Human activity recognition from sensor data (e.g. video), context aware systems that can learn from observation and Learning by imitation in humanoid robotic assistants with biological inspiration.

Admitted students will share their time between Lisbon and Lausanne and will be
supervised by leading experts from both institutions.

GRANTS AVAILABLE FOR OUTSTANDING CANDIDATES WORLDWIDE
Application dates (3rd call): October 4th to November 15th 2010
