This benefaction creates in perpetuity an international scholarship programme to enable outstanding graduate students from outside the United Kingdom to study at the University of Cambridge. The Trustees are required to award scholarships on the basis of a person's intellectual ability, leadership capacity and desire to use their knowledge to contribute to society throughout the world by providing service to their communities and applying their talents and knowledge to improve the lives of others. About the scholarships The Trust expects there to be of the order of 230 Gates Cambridge Scholars studying at the University at any one time. Although there may be variation in the actual number of awards made each year, the Trust seeks to elect approximately 100 new scholars annually. In selecting Gates Cambridge Scholars, the Trust looks for students of exceptional academic achievement and scholarly promise for whom advanced study at Cambridge would be particularly appropriate. The Trust expects a good match to be made between the applicant's qualifications and aspirations and what Cambridge has to offer. Successful applicants will have the ability to make a significant contribution to their discipline while in Cambridge, with a strong aptitude for research, analysis and a creative approach to defining and solving problems. Over time, Gates Cambridge Scholars will form an integral and dynamic part of the University's influential international alumni network, bringing vision and new ideas to improving the lives of citizens throughout the world. Cambridge alumni take the lead in applying knowledge and skill to major problems in every walk of life: Gates Cambridge Scholars are thus expected to use their education for the benefit of others and to improve the common weal. Gates Cambridge Scholarships are awarded only to students who gain admission to the University through the University's regular procedures. They cover the full cost of study at Cambridge for a single person - namely, all approved University and College tuition fees, a maintenance allowance [which for 2004-05 is £8,400], a further discretionary allowance for study-related activities [which for 2004-05 is £1,600], and one return economy airfare between the UK and the Scholar's normal country of residence.

The projects offer the opportunity to work on new finite volume and finite element methods for approximation of the flow equations. One project will have emphasis in the area of grid generation. Focus is on flow in porous media with application to reservoir simulation. The studentships will be based at the University of Wales Swansea, in a lively and vibrant research environment, with strength in computational methods and modelling. The group was awarded 5* at the last RAE. Start date: As soon as possible. Candidates should hold (or expect to hold) a good Honours degree (at least 2.1) in a relevant discipline (including Mathematics, Computational/Numerical Methods Science, Physics, Engineering). They should have an interest in learning numerical modelling techniques. Mathematical skills, including experience in scientific computer programming would be an advantage. Applicants should apply by sending a full CV outlining their research interests and names and addresses of at least two academic referees to Dr M G Edwards, Civil and Computational Engineering Centre, School of Engineering, University of Wales Swansea, SA2 8PP or by email to the address below.

Research projects will in every case be co-supervised across science or engineering and life-science departments. Both experimental and theoretical projects are available, on topics from single-biomolecules to tissue properties. Industrially-linked projects are also available. A four-year framework contains preparative graduate-level courses equivalent to a full taught MSc, equipping students with a physical science background for research at the life sciences interface. Studentship stipends start at £12 000. Further details of available projects and course structure are available at http://www.physics.leeds.ac.uk/pages/WhiteRoseDoctoralTrainingCentre Applicants should have obtained, or be expected to obtain, a first-class degree or equivalent in a physical science or engineering discipline. Enquiries should be addressed in the first instance to Mrs F Bonner email [EMAIL PROTECTED] School of Physics and Astronomy, University of Leeds, Leeds, LS2 9JT or to Mrs Kealey Lambert email [EMAIL PROTECTED] Department of Physics and Astronomy, University of Sheffield, Hicks Building, Hounsfield Rd, Sheffield S3 7RH, UK Closing date: 31 March 2005 ----------------- (Opat Ti Tujuh) EMS ARTICLE COMPETITION The Committee for Raising Public Awareness of Mathematics of the European Mathematical Society invites professional mathematicians, or others, to submit manuscripts for suitable articles on mathematics for one of two competitions. Articles for the educated layman An article must be published, or be about to be published, in an international magazine, or a specialized national magazine, bringing articles on mathematics for an educated public. Articles shall be submitted both in the original language (the published version) and preferably also in an English translation. Articles (translations) may, however, also be submitted in French, German, Italian or Spanish. Deadline for submission to this competition: August 1, 2005. Articles for the general public An article must be published, or be about to be published, in a daily newspaper, or some other widely read general magazine, thereby providing some evidence that the article does catch the interest of a general audience. Articles for the competition shall be submitted both in the original language (the published version) and preferably also in an English translation. Articles (translations) may, however, also be submitted in French, German, Italian or Spanish. Deadline for submission to this competition: January 1, 2006.

In particular, nonlinear partial differential equations are a common theme of our research: The Einstein field equations model both the behaviour of global cosmological models and of isolated gravitating systems such as stars, black holes and galaxies. Our research addresses the qualitative and quantitative properties of solutions with respect to their local and global behaviour, singularity formation and numerical simulation and investigates the close correspondence between geometrical structures and physical concepts. The analytical and numerical studies of gravitational waves are related on a project on gravitational wave astronomy in collaboration with German universities and the German-English gravitational wave experiment GEO 600. Other field equations arise from string theory and the consideration of matter in modern mathematical models in elasticity, fluids, electromagnetism and gauge theories. Several mathematical projects are concerned with the geometrical structure of space and time. They involve geometrical variational principles characterizing specific models in geometry and physics as well as geometric evolution equations like the mean curvature flow of surfaces and the Ricci-flow of Riemannian metrics. There are close interactions with the research sections "Astrophysical Relativity" and "Quantum Gravity and Unified Theories" in the Albert Einstein Institute, as well as with the universities in Berlin and Potsdam. Postdoctoral appointments typically are for two years, starting September 2005 or earlier. A limited number of PhD-scholarships is available, compare also the website of our "International-Max-Planck-Research-School", http://www.aei.mpg.de/imprs/index.html. To apply please submit a curriculum vitae, list of publications and statement of research interests and arrange for three letters of recommendation to be sent to : Frau Anne Lampe Max-Planck-Institut für Gravitationsphysik Albert-Einstein-Institut Am Mühlenberg 1 D-14476 Golm Germany email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Women are especially encouraged to apply.

Application before December, 23 2004. HUMAN CIRCADIAN ENTRAINMENT TO ENVIRONMENTAL TIME. A major function of the biological clock is to enable a subject to anticipate the changes of the environment that occur at 24h intervals. A stable temporal relationship between endogenous rhythms and the external world is believed to be essential for human health. The biological clock is entrained to external time through its responsiveness to light. Most of the characteristics of the behaviour of the biological clock are derived from experiments in which block-shaped light stimulation was applied. Virtually nothing is known about (1) the spectral and intensity changes to which the clock is exposed in real life and (2) the dynamics of the resulting adaptation to light and darkness of the input pathway to the clock. These two topics are the focus of this project.
