VIOLETTE AND SAMUEL GLASSTONE RESEARCH FELLOWSHIPS IN SCIENCE

Applications are invited for the above Research Fellowships, tenable at the University of Oxford, in the fields of Plant Sciences, Chemistry (Inorganic, Organic, or Physical), Engineering, Mathematics, Metallurgy, and Physics. The Fellowships will be tenable for one year with a possibility of renewal for up to two further years. The awards will be available from 1 October 2002, or as soon as possible thereafter.

There is one Fellowship for men and one fellowship for women. These are supported from the Glasstone Fund for Men and the Glasstone Fund for Women respectively. The salary will be on the RSIA scale (currently from £17,451 to £26,229). The number of awards to be made will depend on the value of the funds in 2002 (in 2001 two Fellowships were awarded, one from the fund for men and one from the fund for women). Additional travel and research support grants may be available.

Applicants must have submitted for their doctor-ate by the time of taking up a Fellowship (normally 1 October of the year in which the offer is made). There is no age limit but applicants should not normally have had more than five years of postdoctoral research experience.
