FUNDING OPPORTUNITIES

Pasteur Foundation Post Doctoral Fellowship Program

In collaboration with the Institut Pasteur, the Pasteur Foundation has launched a program to bring U.S. post-doctoral researchers to work in Institut Pasteur laboratories in Paris thanks to the generosity of U.S. donors. Guided by the institute's administration which seeks to develop international scientific exchanges to ensure the vitality and quality of Institut Pasteur labs, this program is for American citizens and does not apply to candidates already in France.

The fellowships are $60,000 ($45,000 fellowship plus $15,000 bench fees to support the research) per year for a term of three years and are not renewable. Financing for the second and third years is contingent upon positive annual review by the host lab head.

Candidates are expected to commit to a three-year stay. Attention will be given to the Pasteur Foundation Fellows so that their time on the Parisian campus of the Institut Pasteur is an enriching experience not only scientifically, but also personally and culturally.

Tripp Commons, Memorial Union

"What you don't know about current students that you should: Current students as classroom consumers"

Lori Berquam, Interim Dean of Students, will provide some insight into how we can continue to connect with incoming students as we, their instructors, continue to gracefully age with time.

Presenters Needed for Family Science Events

Adult role models in science are needed to present for family science events. The goals of these events are to help students understand what scientists do - both the physical activities and the thought process of science, show that science is not a body of facts to learn but a way to figure out how the world works, increase awareness of the diversity of science that goes on at the university and in businesses and agencies in Madison, make students aware of potential careers, and motivate kids and parents to learn more and become more involved in science. All presentations should involve the kids and parents in the process of science, explain why the activity is relevant to their lives and give them something they can do to follow up at home, if possible.

Dates and Locations:
Hawthorne (northeast Madison) - Feb. 20th
Lowell (east Madison) - March 27th
Emerson (near east Madison) - April 17th
Waunakee - April 19th
Glendale (southeast Madison) - TBA
The Madison Children's Museum is also looking for hands-on science presentations on Sundays. These should be appropriate for pre-K through 4th graders. If you're interested in a longer term program, 25+ schools and community centers need help with after-school science clubs.

Contact Dolly Ledin, daledin@wisc.edu, or 222-4865 for more information or to volunteer.
