To promote the participation of women in Liberal Arts and Natural
Sciences the University of Groningen offers a prestigious fellowship
programme, named after Rosalind Franklin, whose X-ray studies of DNA
were crucial to solving its structure. Five fellowships are available in
the Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences. The fellowships will be
awarded to outstanding women scientists from any of the disciplines
mathematics, physics, astronomy, chemistry, biology, pharmacy,
environmental studies, computing science and artificial
intelligence.

APPLICANTS MUST HAVE:
- a Ph.D and post-doctoral experience, preferably in different research
institutions (Dutch applicants should have minimally 2 years
