[Coral-List] Fellowships for US, Canadian, and SE Asian Post-docs to work in UK

[Peter J Mumby]

Hi everyone

It's a little late notice but I thought I'd pass this on. The Royal Society
has a fellowship scheme to enable Post-doctoral scientists, at various
stages of their career, to enjoy the delights of British weather at a UK
university for up to 3 years. The fellowship includes relocation fees,
annual salary (moderately generous for UK standards) and an annual research
grant of £12,000. Eligible applicants should be of US, Canadian or SE Asian
nationality and the closing date is 1st March 05.

If anyone's interested, and has a UK collaborator in mind, you'll need to
write a short proposal outlining the collaborative nature with the host (UK)
scientist. Institutions conducting reef research in the UK include the
Universities of Exeter, Newcastle, Bangor, York, Edinburgh and Manchester
Metropolitan.
