Academic Visits & Visiting Fellowships
Call for applications
Applications are invited from researchers working in central and eastern Europe1 for short academic visits to research centres and laboratories participating in INCORE (see http://incore.ich.ucl.ac.uk). Academic Visits and Visiting Fellowships are intended to facilitate interactions between research centres working on cooperation, and address specific projects that relate to the research being undertaken by the INCORE partners.
The objective of INCORE is to further the development of research into cooperative behaviour in humans and animals. It also aims to encourage the participation of junior researchers in this field, and to promote collaboration between groups working on diverse aspects of cooperation research. Partner specialisms include animal ecology, brain and behavioural science, experimental economics, genetics and biosciences and primatology.
The following opportunities are offered for the period 1st September 2008 to 31st August 2009:
Two Visiting Fellowships for graduate students (two months each)
Two Visiting Fellowships for junior researchers2 (one month each)
Two Academic Visits for senior researchers3 (one week each)
Successful applicants will be awarded travel costs (maximum 500), a contribution to research costs (maximum 500), and subsistence for the duration of the visit.
