This week we would like to
congratulate Dr. Crina-Silvia Ilea for winning the Norwegian HydrogenforumÕs award for groundbreaking PhD-work.
The award ceremony will take place in Trondheim at the end of February and is
given on the basis of her research documented in the article entitled NiO/YSZ nanoparticles obtained by new
sol–gel route, Chemical Engineering Journal, 140, No. 1-3, (2008) 586-592. Crina had her
disputation in 2007 with the following title New Materials for Solid Oxide Fuel Cells Based on
Nanoparticles under the supervision of Alex Hoffmann. She is
currently employed at CMR Prototech. |
Norwegian Research CouncilÕs information
meeting on the Industrial
Phd scheme in Bergen Place:
NRCÕs regional office, Statens hus (11. floor), Kaigaten 9

What is the Industrial Phd scheme? b.
Main features of the scheme c.
Points to be cleared out prior to application d. What are the challenges?
Register ASAP with Atle Markussen, latest
by Thursday 27.01.2011, until 16:00. Remember to give your name and the name
of your company/organization you are associated with. If you already
have established cooperation with a company regarding your research, note that
with the Industrial
Phd scheme it is possible to have 50% of
the PhD salary covered by the company and 50% by NRC, which may allow for
additional recruitment within the company. The candidates to be hired must
apply for admission to PhD in compliance with regular conditions. Unless the
project proposal written by the company in cooperation with UoB is of outstanding quality, the participation fees
might be rather high. Visit to individual companies Annette Vestlund, project leader, will be in Bergen on 2. and 3. February, and will be visiting the companies which have the need to discuss their projects. Regarding this visit, please contact Atle Markussen. |

Funding for doctoral training activities Candidates
accepted to the PhD-study at the Department of Physics and Technology may
apply for funding for research education activities in 2011. The applicants
must be registered as PhD-student the present semester in order to apply.
Applicants without any external economical support (Quota, University
scholarships, Self-financing PhD-students) will be prioritized. Funding for the following activities can be
applied for:
The
doctoral training activity must be completed within 01.09.11. See more
information and find the application form here.
Deadline 15.02.11. Please fill

department. |
Economic support for field work or
seminar/conference for master students 2011 Have
you done or are you planning field work or
travelling to a seminar/conference in 2011? Then you can apply for economical
support (max. kr. 5000,-). Guidelines and
application forms are available here

Christie Conference 2011 This
yearÕs Christie
Conference, which
is the second conference in a row, will be arranged in Grieghallen
on 27. April 2011. The perspective
for Christie Conference 2011 is: UoB –
internationally recognized research university outside the countryÕs capital.
What kind of possibilities and challenges does this claim pose for Bergen, Vestlandet and Norway? The candidates for the Christie Award can be nominated until February 1. |
