Regular Associates

Visiting the ICTP as an Associate represents a crucial, and almost unique, opportunity to maintain scientific collaborations with prestigious colleagues from around the world. It also helps me to follow the state of the art in my field of research, by attending  the various seminars and activities organized by the ICTP. This implies a benefit not only for my career development, but also for the colleagues working in my group at my University, as they eventually also participate in such collaborations.

Regular Associates are scientists aged between 36 and 45 who hold a PhD and are working in developing countries.

The Associate programme enables them to maintain long term formal contacts with the stimulating and active scientific environment of the Centre by supporting their visits to ICTP where they are exposed to the most modern aspects of their scientific fields.

Associates are expected to play a major role in building their scientific communities, enhancing physics and mathematics education at all levels, and planning research projects related to the specific needs of their home regions.

In addition to the research fields listed below, ICTP  Associates can also pursue research in the field of Digital and Computer Networking.
