Asia-Oceania Neutron Scattering Association (AONSA) Young Research Fellowship Program
The purpose of the Asia-Oceania Neutron Scattering Association (AONSA) Young Research Fellowship Program is to support highly talented young scientists with leadership potential in the Asia-Oceania region, helping them to develop their career and expertise in neutron science and technology. The Program will provide financial support for Fellows to visit major neutron facilities in the region for collaborative research using neutrons.
Applications to the AONSA Young Research Fellowship is open to any young scientist in the Asia-Oceania region within 8 years of the completion of their PhD and who wishes to perform neutron research at major neutron facilities in the region (but not in their home country).
Key Dates:
Application Deadline: August 31, 2026
