June 18, 2009
The third edition of the ICFO-Caixa Catalunya-Summer Fellows Program has started with the participation of 15 students from Spain and other countries, including Germany, Poland, Canada, Mexico and the US.
The Summer Fellowships provide a unique opportunity for undergraduate students and their ICFO group leader mentors to engage in approximately twelve weeks of full-time research. The students awarded with the fellowships this year are:
Marduk Bolaños, Francisco Cordobés, Gonzalo de la Torre, Laura Dubreuil, Franscesc Espasa, David Frigola, Eliot Hijano, Avelino Javer, Sebastian Knorr, Roberto León, Siamrut Patanavanich, Marti Perarnau, Anna Przysiezna, Yulia Tolstova, and Herman Wong.
The Summer Fellows Program promoted by ICFO together with Caixa Catalunya Obra Social aims at early exposure to science and research and early support for outstanding undergraduates. While the research activity is in progress, students may also engage in a training program offering professional and personal development opportunities. The Summer Program covers the basics and applications of different ongoing research topics at ICFO. It consists of lectures by distinguished guest speakers, group leaders and post-doctoral researchers in a broad range of areas, guided tours of ICFO labs, and selected team building activities aimed at helping Summer Fellows become part of the ICFO community and enhancing their networking abilities.
