Postdoctoral fellowships bring best and brightest in 2013

The characteristics of poor health-related quality of life, the impact of children's smart technology use on family literacy practices and improving the perception and manipulation capabilities of robots are just some of the exiting new projects that will be undertaken by the 2013 Chancellor's Postdoctoral (CPD) Fellows at UTS.

Twelve of the world's best and brightest young researchers have been awarded fellowships at UTS next year as part of the CPD scheme. This is a relatively new scheme for UTS where the fellows are appointed to three to four-year positions that will support the UTS research strategy by building capacity within the UTS research community and raising UTS's profile as a research university of note.

According to Deputy Vice-Chancellor (Research), Professor Attila Brungs, the quality of the 2013 intake of CPDs is testament to the growing reputation of the program and its ability to shape the careers of early stage researchers.

"The reach of the CPD program continues to grow, and we are now recruiting top young researchers from some of the most prestigious universities in the world," Professor Brungs said.
