Description
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Center for Nanoscale Science and Technology (CNST) is establishing a financial assistance program for awardees to develop and implement with the CNST a Postdoctoral Researcher and Visiting Fellow Measurement Science and Engineering Program. This program is intended to promote research, training, and practical experience in nanoscale science and technology on-site at the CNST, and to advance the CNST’s mission to support the development of nanotechnology through research on measurement and fabrication methods, standards and technology, and by operating a state-of-the-art nanofabrication facility, the NanoFab. The primary program objectives are: 1.To advance, through cooperative efforts with one or more universities, research consistent with the mission of NIST, and CNST specifically. See http://www.nist.gov/cnst/ and 15 U.S.C. Sec. 271 et seq. 2.To provide training for the next generation of nanotechnologists by providing recent Ph.D. recipients postdoctoral positions (“Postdoctoral Researchers”) to perform research at the CNST under the mentorship of a CNST Project Leader. The Postdoctoral Researchers must show promise as contributors to the mission of the CNST, and be selected on the basis of ability and of the relevance of the proposed work to the mission of the CNST. 3.To provide advanced training and access to the CNST’s expertise and instrumentation by providing practicing scientists and engineers in the public and private sectors visiting senior research positions (“Visiting Fellows”) to perform research at the CNST in collaboration with a CNST Project Leader. The Visiting Fellows must be selected on the basis of ability and on the relevance of the proposed work to the mission of the CNST. 4.To provide Postdoctoral Researchers and Visiting Fellows under this program with professional development opportunities, including travel to relevant workshops and conferences. 5.To encourage U.S. industrial, university, and government scientists to participate in research at the CNST, either in collaboration with the CNST research program or by using the NanoFab, by providing support for travel and local expenses for participants traveling beyond a normal commuting distance to the CNST in Gaithersburg, Maryland.
