University of Nevada, Reno
PhD in Economics (in collaboration with the Economics Department)
MS in Resource and Applied Economics
The Department of Resource Economics at the University of Nevada, Reno,
has received additional funding to offer three research assistantships
to new Graduate Students starting in fall 2009. The assistantships
include a stipend of $18,000 per year, a partial tuition waiver, and
health insurance coverage. Conditional on strong performance and in
absence of any unforeseen shortfall in funding, the full assistantship
will be available for up to five years. While we give preference to PhD

this funding opportunity.
Our graduate program provides a strong foundation in microeconomic
theory and quantitative methods, with focus on Resource and
Environmental Economics, Regional Economics, and Applied Econometrics.

http://scholarshipo nline.info/ ubbo-emmius- phd-scholarship- 2009-on-imaging- braing-network- abnormalities- in-ageing- related-hearing- disorders- university- of-groningen/
The University Medical Center Groningen in the Netherlands is offering various “Ubbo Emmius” PhD-scholarships. Candidates are hereby invited to apply for the position with vacancy number “UE-vac-10″ with the following description.
Various prevalent hearing disorders in elderly people crucially involve neural mechanisms in the brain. For instance, in tinnitus (ringing in the ears), abnormal interactions between auditory and non-auditory brain areas are believed to cause the perception of phantom sounds. In presbyacusis (hearing loss) or deafness, deprivation of acoustic input may result in abnormal cross-modal plastic reorganization. Novel fMRI neuroimaging and neurovisualization methods can identify anatomical and functional connectivity patterns throughout the brain, even during rest. The candidate will investigate these methods and apply them to study ageing-related hearing complaints, like tinnitus and severe hearing loss, and their underlying neural mechanisms.

PhD student (2×2 years) in label-free DNA-sensors with real-time, electronic detection principles
(mandate WNI/2009/001)
Job description
The PhD student will conduct research within the FWO-project “Synthetic diamond films as platform materials for novel DNA-sensors with electronic detection principles”. This project is a joint initiative of the Institute for Materials Research IMO and the Biomedical Research Institute BIOMED at Hasselt University in cooperation with the Institute for Nano- and Biotechnologies at Aachen University of Applied Sciences. The candidate will focus on i) the covalent bonding of DNA onto diamond-based sensor electrodes and the morphological study of molecular DNA brushes, ii) the integration into label-free biosensors with electronic, impedance-based read-out techniques, and iii) the upgrading towards sensor arrays with a benchmarking with respect to point-mutations in patients’ genetic materials. This project combines cutting-edge applied- and fundamental research topics in an interdisciplinary environment. Interest in team work, excellent
communication skills, and broad interests in natural-, medical-, and engineering sciences are a benefit.
Profile and diploma
Master degree (or equivalent) in physics, biomedical sciences, materials science, nanotechnology, electronic engineering, or physical chemistry. A background in any of the fields mentioned in the job description will be considered a plus.
