PhD openings at Cardiff University

Cardiff University's endowment funds have accumulated sufficiently to offer three PhD studentships to full time students.

Funding is available on the following basis:

Full-time awards

1.        Two x 3-year full-time PhD studentships where 50% of the costs (fees, standard stipend and project support) are met through the endowment fund and the remaining 50% will be match funded by the School.

        The cost of the studentships has been estimated as follows:

Happy new year 2014 - open access repository

Dear blog-readers,

As you may know, our research group has, with my leaving the UK, moved in part to Luxembourg, where I am now based. I am of course keeping close ties with Cardiff, where Pierre Kerfriden is now taking care of the group.

It has been a fun and productive year, and I thank you all for contributing to this through numerous discussions emanating from this blog. I wish you all the best for 2014, and hope that it will bring you joy in the work you do.

Best regards from Lausanne where we are enjoying a few days off.
