Hello UKPN,

See info below for an exciting funding opportunity to work in Antarctica.

Amélie

The InBev-Baillet Latour Fund and the International Polar Foundation (IPF) announce the opening of the 2011 Call for Proposals for the InBev-Baillet Latour Antarctica Fellowship.

The Fellowship of €150 000 has been created to promote research activities at, or in the vicinity of, the Princess Elisabeth Antarctica research station.

Princess Elisabeth Station is located in the Sør Rondane Mountain Range, Dronning Maud Land (East-Antarctica). The station lies at 71° 57' S and 23° 20' E, 220 km due South from the edge of the ice shelf. Research activities extend also to this coastal area.

The Fellowship is to be disbursed over a two year period to cover two field campaigns in Antarctica (to be carried out in the Antarctic summer seasons of Nov. 2012 – Feb. 2013 and Nov. 2013 – Feb. 2014).

The Fellowship is open to doctoral and post-doctoral researchers under the age of 35 years, from all over the World.

The InBev-Baillet Latour Antarctica Fellowship is awarded on a yearly basis. The Annual Call for Proposals will list the scientific research areas, themes, or special topics from which proposals are solicited.
