The Kavli Institute for Theoretical Physics has established
a program of visiting researchers in theoretical physics. The purpose
of this program is to support the research efforts of faculty at U.S. colleges
and universities that are not major research institutions. Applicants from
non-Ph.D.-granting institutions and from institutions with greater emphasis
on teaching (as measured, for example, by teaching load) are particularly
encouraged. Ongoing research activity is also a criterion.
Each award funds a total of three round trips and up to
six weeks of local expenses, to be used over a period of up to three years.
24 scholars have been selected to date, and it is expected that 7 more
will be chosen in 2008.
Scientists interested in this program should write or
email the Director and include a vita together with
a statement describing their research interests, and arrange for at least
one letter of recommendation, before November 15,
2008. Awards will be
announced by December 15, 2008.
