The practical details of this program are as follows:-
- Up to six bursaries are available each year with a value of £5000 each.
- The bursaries can be held at any UK institution with a particle physics program.
- The intention of the bursaries is to bring distinguished researchers from outside the United Kingdom for the period of at least three weeks.
- Decisions on bursaries will be made by the IPPP Steering Committee, which meets twice a year, in March and in September.
- To be considered at the March or September meeting, applications must be received before the 14th March or the last day of August respectively.
- Applications should be sent to michael.spannowsky@durham.ac.uk and Joanne.Bentham@durham.ac.uk
- Applications can be sponsored by any permanent member of staff at a UK University with a particle physics programme.
- Preference will be given to visits that have the potential to create new collaborations, rather than maintain existing relationships.
- Proposed research topics should influence, or have the potential to influence the UK experimental program.
- There is no application form, but hosts should submit the name and institute of proposed visitor, the proposed length and time period of the visit, and the proposed topic.
- DIVA winners will be expected to give a seminar or colloquium at both the host institution, and at the IPPP.
- Applications longer than one page of A4 will not be accepted.
