  Probing the intermediate-mass regime of star formation
Cardiff University Cardiff School of Physics and Astronomy
  Research Group: Astronomy
  Dr N Peretto
Application Deadline: 18 January 2019
The initial mass function (IMF) of stars is a fundamental global output of the star formation process, and the question of its origin and universality has been a long-standing open issue.

  War in the cabbage patch: a field test of metacommunity theory
Centre for Ecology and Hydrology CEH (Wallingford Site)
  Prof J Bullock, Dr D Hodgson
Application Deadline: 7 January 2019
