The AONSA Young Research Fellowship (YRF) program was established in early 2014 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. Applications were received by the submission deadline (September 15, 2022), and then reviewed by the Selection Committee for the AONSA YRF 2023.
The final selections were made by the SC in consultation with hosting neutron Facilities and officially approved at the 29th AONSA Executive Committee Meeting held in Indonesia on November 25, 2022 in hybrid mode.
It is AONSA’s great pleasure to announce that two highly talented young scientists, Dr. Jianyuan Wu and Dr. Ferensa Oemry have been selected as the winners of AONSA YRF 2023, who will visit a major neutron facility in Asia-Oceania region for collaborative research using neutrons in 2023. The AONSA YRF’s round-trip airfare will be supported by AONSA, and local living expense during their Fellowship visit will be supported by the hosting Facility.
