Mathematical Sciences Postdoctoral Research Fellowships

Liliana Borcea将在斯坦福大学获得博士学位，并将在加州理工学院赫伯特·b·凯勒的指导下进行研究。主要研究高对比度介质成像中的数学问题，主要是反问题的求解。数学科学博士后研究奖学金是颁发给最近获得数学科学博士学位的人。这些奖项是为国家科学事业的未来活力作出贡献的一种手段。随着数学科学研究人员扩大与其他学科的互动，随着数学本身各个领域之间的相互作用增加，博士后研究和培训的机会变得越来越重要。该奖学金旨在允许获奖者选择对其未来科学发展有最大影响的研究环境。该奖学金旨在提供24个月的支持，分为18个学年月和三个夏季月。接受者可以选择(1)研究奖学金选项，允许在三年期间的任何18个学年的全职支持，间隔不少于连续3个月；或(2)研究指导选项，允许18个月的学年支持作为9个月的全职支持和18个月的半时间支持。本奖学金在任何日历年度的夏季资助不得超过两个月。＊＊＊

9627407 Borcea Liliana Borcea will receive her doctoral degree from Stanford University and will pursue research under the guidance of Herbert B. Keller at the California Institute of Technology. The research is on mathematical problems in imaging high contrast media, primarily in the solution of inverse problems. %%% The Mathematical Sciences Postdoctoral Research Fellowships are awards to recent recipients of doctoral degrees in the mathematical sciences. These awards are a means of contributing to the future vitality of the scientific effort of the nation. As researchers in the mathematical sciences expand their interactions with other disciplines, and as the interplay increases between the various areas of mathematics itself, opportunities for postdoctoral research and training are becoming increasingly important. The Fellowships are designed to permit awardees to choose research environments that will have maximal impact on their future scientific development. The fellowship is designed to provide 24 months of support divided into 18 academic-year months and three periods of two summer months. The recipient may choose (1) the Research Fellowship option which allows for full time support for any 18 academic year months in a three year period, in intervals not shorter than 3 consecutive months or (2) the Research Instructorship option which allows the 18 months of academic year support to be taken as nine months of full time support and 18 months of half time support. Not more than two months of summer support from this Fellowship may be received in any calendar year. ***
