Beasiswa S3: PhD Scholarships Mathematical Sciences Japan

Meiji Institute for Advanced Study of Mathematical Sciences Ph.D. Program
A selected project for Global COE (Centers of Excellence) Program :
Formation and Development of Mathematical Sciences Based on Modeling and Analysis

Overview of MIMS Ph. D. Program
The key educational component of the Global COE Program for the `Formation and Development of Mathematical Sciences Based on Modeling and Analysis’ is the Ph.D. program provided by MIMS, an affiliated research institute of the Organization for the Strategic Coordination of Research and Intellectual Property, Meiji University.

This program consists of (1) “Cross Educational Programs” and (2) “Practical Programs”.

(1) “Cross Educational Programs” are based mainly on the “Project Based Analysis and Research Cluster” and the “Inter-Departmental Course” at the Graduate School of Meiji University. In the “Project Based Analysis and Research Cluster”, four subjects – Advanced Study of Mathematical Sciencesâ… & â…¡, and Advanced Mathematical Sciences â… & â…¡ – are provided, which are coordinated by MIMS members and research fellows. These subjects are taught in both English and Japanese, and are designed to instruct students in “Mathematical modeling and analysis” for nonlinear non-equilibrium systems and non-linear time-series, which are central themes at MIMS. The aim is that students become able to consider complex phenomena in societies from various perspectives. The Inter-Departmental Course offer a number of “Multilingual Graduate Research”, such as “Fundamentals of English Communication Skills in Academic Setting” and “Fundamentals of Writing Academic Papers in English”. These subjects, which are taught by English native speaking professors specializing in academic English teaching, are aimed to cultivate highly skilled researchers able to be active internationally. Moreover, as an optional curriculum, students are recommended to study at graduate schools of partner universities based on the credit transfer system. At the Department of Mathematical and Life Sciences at the Graduate School of Science, Hiroshima University, a collaborating institute of our Global COE Program, some courses are available to be enrolled. In addition, the Graduate School of Science and Technology of Ryukoku University, an education and research hub for western Japan on Mathematical Sciences, provides students with the opportunity to take classes as well.

On the other hand, (2) “Practical Programs” are based mainly on the “MIMS Research Guidance Program” at the Graduate School of Meiji University, and the “Project research for graduate students” at the Department of Mathematical and Life Sciences at the Graduate School of Science, Hiroshima University. In the “MIMS Research Guidance Program”, a MIMS member or research fellow will be selected from each MIMS research group (Modeling, Mathematical Analysis, and Simulation) to form a research guidance team which will then provide comprehensive supervision to each individual student. The program mainly consists of two courses: the “Non-linear non-equilibrium systems course” which focuses mainly on vital and biological phenomena and the “Non-linear time-series course” which focuses mainly on economics, finance and the phenomena of natural science. The “Project research for graduate students” allows students to actually study at the Graduate School of Hiroshima University and participate in research programs for several months. Students must plan their own research subject, and complete a report of their accomplishments. The aim is to enhance students’ ability to study on their own initiative in different environmental conditions and heighten their research expertise and understanding of their respective fields.

Students who complete all of the courses mentioned above receive necessary guidance, and once the student has reached a certain level, the student will receive permission to submit a dissertation (Doctoral Thesis). Students who have successfully passed the examination of the thesis, will be awarded a Doctoral Degree.

An English version of the application guidelines for the MIMS Ph.D. Program is now available from here .

As the title implies, EMSEP has two main focuses: (1) promotion of healthy habits and overall lifestyle via regular engagement in various forms of physical activity; and (2) psychological support for athletes. The areas covered by EMSEP include, but are not limited to, motivation, performance, behaviour regulation, cognition, (post)career planning for athletes, identity, counselling and preventive interventions withinsport and exercise contexts.

Career opportunities
The EMSEP programme prepares students for a research and/or professional career in Sport and Exercise Psychology through a combination of coursework, independent study, internship, and an extensive hands-on research experience. After successful completion of the programme, graduates will be awarded a double degree. EMSEP graduates can expect to find employment in the private and public sectors of exercise, well-being and sport; for example, as health and fitness leaders, instructors, performance enhancement specialists, psychological health consultants, or academic researchers in the field.

Beasiswa S3 PhD Scholarships in Molecular Basis of Neurodegeneration Germany

PhD Scholarships in Molecular Basis of Neurodegeneration, University of Tuebingen, Germany
Two Ph.D. student positions are available in the Research Group Synaptic Plasticity, at the Hertie-Institute for Clinical Brain Research, University of Tuebingen, Germany. Our group addresses the molecular and cellular basis of synaptic plasticity.

Special focus of the advertised project will be
(1) Modeling age-dependent proteotoxicity in adult Drosophila
(2) In vivo imaging of synaptic APP processing

(1) Modeling age-dependent proteotoxicity in adult Drosophila
Many diseases of aging, including Alzheimer’s disease and various forms of Parkinsonism, are associated with proteotoxicity caused by improper folding and aggregation of proteins. Recently a Drosophila “Alzheimer” model was described which allows key stages in disease progression to be studied. Specifically it facilitates analysis of processing of the Alzheimer precursor protein (APP) into the Aß peptide which has been implicated as the main instigator of disease [Greeve et. al, JNS, 2004 p 3899]. We have utilized this model to identify putative modifiers that link aging and APP induced neuronal cell death [unpublished results]. Furthermore, we want to address the effect of modifying signalling pathways involved in aging on the neurodegeneration apparent in this model. Subsequently we will assess the effects of these modifications on neurodegeneration induced by Aß alone [Iijima et. al., PNAS, 2004. p 6623], tau [Wittmann et. al., Science, 2001 p 711] and other neurodegenerative diseases, such as Parkinson’s and spinocerebellar ataxia 3 (SCA3). In addition to fly genetics and husbandry, specific techniques designed to test behavioural changes, memory/learning deficiencies and retinal degeneration have been designed for use in this project. The ideal candidate is a highly motivated student with top grades, talent and creativity who is willing to visit collaborating laboratories in the course of his/her PhD.

(2) In vivo imaging of synaptic APP processing
In this Ph.D. project in vivo imaging [Füger et al., Nature Protocols 2007. p 3285; Rasse et. al., Nature Neuroscience 2005. p 898] and structural analysis [Kittel et. al., Science 2006. p 1051] will be combined to study, in vivo, how soluble fragments of APP-related proteins effect synapse formation, maturation and elimination at the Drosophila neuromuscular junction. The mechanism by which misregulated APP/APPL function leads to pathological events and subsequent symptoms of neurodegeneration will be investigated. Studying this effect in vivo will allow the temporal sequence of cellular events to be deciphered. Investigations shall furthermore clarify the exact cellular localization and functional relevance of APP/APPL processing for synaptic function. The ideal candidate is a highly motivated student with top grades, talent and creativity who is willing to visit collaborating laboratories in the course of his/her PhD.

The two advertised positions are financed by the German Research Center for Neurodegenerative Diseases (DZNE) in Tuebingen and the Graduate Training Center Centre of Neuroscience at the University of Tuebingen, Germany. Highly qualified graduate students are invited to apply for this 2-years scholarship that can be extended to a third year. The scholarships are funded by the German Helmholtz Research Center for Neurodegenerative Diseases. The research findings should eventually translate into novel diagnostic, preventive, and therapeutic strategies.
