LPC Guest and Visitor Program
The next call for proposals for the LPC Short Stay Guest Program is expected to be in the Autumn 2011 for visits commencing on or after 1 November 2011.
The LPC Short Stay Guest Program, launched in 2010, resulted in a series of highly productive and successful visits to the LPC during the past year. A modest amount of funding is again available to support short one to three month stays at the LPC during the period 15 May 2011 to 30 October 2011 to conduct any aspect of CMS research. Faculty, post docs and graduate students are eligible. Proposals, no more than one page, describing the proposed research and deliverables, and the rationale for conducting the work at the LPC should be submitted to Terry Grozis tgrozis@fnal.gov by Monday 25 April in pdf format. Clearly state the proposed start and end date and funding amount requested. Proposals to support graduate students should be submitted by the major professor, proposals to support post docs should be submitted by the mentor/supervisor. Applicants will have a regular stipend from their home institution as funding through this program will only be sufficient to provide supplemental support, i.e. housing, local transportation, and a reduced rate per diem. A review of the proposals will be conducted by the LPC Guest Program Committee in early May with results communicated to the proponents expeditiously.
