Oh, Cambridge!

I visited the Cambridge at the beginning of this month. Giving a presentation at the Cavendish Laboratory is an honour, while punting down the cam river that runs alongside Magdalen College was a wonderful relaxation.

China-UK Science Networks

Henry Tan — Wed, 08 Aug 2007 15:23:45 -0400

In April 2007, the UK Office of Science and Innovation (OSI) signed a bilateral agreement with the Chinese Ministry of Education, making funding available to establish a networking scheme which aimed to initiate and develop enduring partnerships between the UK and Chinese scientists. Under the agreement, both sides agreed upon the need to bring together their most excellent scientists in any field of science and technology. The implementing bodies in each country are the Royal Society and the China Scholarship Council (CSC).

Application deadline is 17 September 2007.

看来您对America的感情还是想当深厚的，否则找到好工作想到的岂非李太白的《朝发白帝城》？:)

PhD Scholarships

Tung Phan Van — Sat, 12 May 2007 12:24:16 -0400

Dear Tan!

I am a lecturer of University of Transport, Vietnam and i just defended my master thesis about Mechanics in March, 2007. I graduated Faculty of Informatics Maths at Natural Sciences University and my speciality is Mechanics Maths and then I graduated Master of Sciences in Mechanics of cooperation program between Liege University, Belgium and Technology University, Vietnam. My thesis is "Material stability analysis of particle methods" supported by Dr. Timon Rabczuk (Germany) at University of Canterbury, New Zealand. I am finding PhD scholarships about Computational Sciences, especially in Mechanics to apply. At the present I am interested in sciences reasearches about Computational Mechanics or program languages and I can use Tex to edit lecture, paper, thesis....familiarly. Therefore, I think that a PhD position actually is a big chance for me to gain invaluable knowledge of sciences.

Please could you let me know any information of scholarships at your university?

Thank you very much and nice day!

Best regards!

再别康桥

Henry Tan — Sun, 29 Apr 2007 12:14:57 -0400

离开美国的心情。想起诗人徐志摩重访英国剑桥回来在中国海上写的《再别康桥》。

輕輕的我走了，正如我輕輕的來；
我輕輕的招手，作別西天的雲彩。

那河畔的金柳，是夕陽中的新娘；
波光裡的艷影，在我的心頭蕩漾。

軟泥上的青荇，油油的在水底招搖：
在康河的柔波裡，我甘心做一條水草！

那榆蔭下的一潭，不是清泉，
是天上虹揉碎在浮藻間，沉澱著彩虹似的夢。

尋夢？撐一支長篙，向青草更青處漫溯，
滿載一船星輝，在星輝斑爛裡放歌。

但我不能放歌，悄悄是別離的笙簫；
夏蟲也為我沉默，沉默是今晚的康橋！

悄悄的我走了，正如我悄悄的來；
我揮一揮衣袖，不帶走一片雲彩。

Congratulations!

Marie Curie Fellowships

Henry Tan — Wed, 18 Apr 2007 21:05:42 -0400

Marie Curie Fellowships, European research in action
Focus on the results of European research into issues of wide public interest.
http://ec.europa.eu/research/leaflets/mariecurie/en/index.html

Marie Curie Fellowships give researchers the opportunity to work in another country as part of the research team that is right for them. And they give research teams in all areas the chance to add some variety to their ranks.

Research fellows learn as they work: as well as their chosen discipline, they improve their language skills and broaden their cultural understanding. And it’s a two-way process: coming from outside, they can often contribute a fresh approach and a novel point of view. The host team gains a more rounded and multicultural outlook – and thus raises its chance of a successful result.
