摘要:

September 5is the deadline for applications for National Science Foundation Postdoctoral Fellowships. Approximately 65 awards will be made in the mathematical, physical, engineering, and other sciences, as well as in the history and philosophy of science and in several interdisciplinary fields. Applicants must be US citizens or nationals and possess a doctoral degree or equivalent education and experience. Their qualifications will be evaluated by panels of scientists chosen by the National Academy of Sciences—National Research Council. Fellows may engage in study or research at any appropriate non‐profit US or foreign institution. Application materials can be obtained by writing to the Fellowship Office, National Academy of Sciences—National Research Council, 2101 Constitution Ave., N. W., Washington, D.C. All applicants will be notified by letter on October 16 as to the disposition of their applications.

摘要:

August 1is the deadline for return of applications for a two‐week course on nuclear methods applied to oceanography which is to be conducted by the Special Training Division of the Oak Ridge Institute of Nuclear Studies from November 6 to 17. The course will be limited to twenty participants. Those who wish to explore the feasibility of applying nuclear methods to their own research problems may remain at the Institute an additional week for this purpose. Further information and application blanks can be obtained from Dr. Ralph T. Overman, chairman, Special Training Division, Oak Ridge Institute of Nuclear Studies, P.O. Box 117, Oak Ridge, Tenn.

摘要:

A new seven‐storyphysics research building has recently been occupied by the Kodak Research Laboratories in Rochester, N.Y. Its 200 000 square feet of floor space provide room for the work of about 400 persons and include over 200 special rooms for research in such fields as the theory of the photographic process, image structure, optical systems, sensitometry, radiography, sound recording, electrostatics, and solid‐state physics. Special features include an optical penthouse on the roof for use in long‐range photography and solar‐radiation work and a temperature‐controlled underground lens tunnel measuring 160 feet long, ten feet wide, and ten feet high.

摘要:

Expendituresfor separately budgeted research and development at colleges and universities increased from $410 million to $736 million between 1954 and 1958. According to a survey by the National Science Foundation, the problem of finding the people to perform the increased amount of work represented by the increase in money has largely been met by shifting faculty members already involved in part‐time research over to full‐time participation. The NSF found that in 1958 a total of 69 919 scientists and engineers (defined as all persons with baccalaureate degrees who were doing professional‐level work) were engaged in research at colleges, universities, federal contract research centers, and agricultural experiment stations. Faculty members accounted for 32 820 of the total, which represented an increase of only 3 percent over 1954, but the number of faculty members doing full‐time research increased almost 50 percent, from 7000 to 10 400.
