We are calling for applications for the Mildred Dresselhaus Guest Professorship 2014.
The award has been established by The Hamburg Centre for Ultrafast Imaging (CUI), the new cluster of excellence at the Universität Hamburg, Germany, to promote outstanding female scientists. The CUI aims to observe and understand molecular processes at the atomic length and time scales, and includes the development of structure determination using ultrafast electron pulses and X-ray free-electron laser pulses. In 2014 the guest professorship will be awarded for the second time to a successful senior scientist and a younger scientist with high potential. The awardees are invited to work in Hamburg within CUI for a period of up to six months in 2014. We provide excellent research conditions to attract world-leading researchers to Hamburg with the aim of starting new and intensifying existing collaborations. Our current awardees are: Prof. Dr. Tamar Seideman, Northwestern University, USA and Prof. Dr. Rosario Gonzalez-Ferez, Universidad de Granada, Spain. Please feel invited to submit your nomination of a suitable candidate or your own application (letter of motivation, scientific CV including the five most important publications, list of invited talks, teaching experience as well as research interests as one single PDF file) to wiebke.kirchei...@cui.uni-hamburg.de by April 15, 2014.
