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. Approximately 8 are chosen each year, with a total of 82 awards up to 2008. Scientists interested in this program should write or e-mail 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, 2009. Awards will be announced by December 15, 2009. Professor David Gross, Director email: Scholars [at] kitp.ucsb.edu
