the 2015-16 Fulbright Scholar Program in Finland that I thought might
especially appeal to someone with your background and interests. My
organization, the Council for International Exchange of Scholars,
administers the Fulbright Scholar Program on behalf of the United States
Department of State Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs. Please feel
free to forward this message to other interested colleagues and share

> The Fulbright-VTT Grant in Science, Technology and Innovation in Finland
is a one-of-a-kind opportunity to research within the area of biological
sciences, with particular emphasis on the fields of biomass. The selected
candidate will conduct research with colleagues at VTT Technical Research
Center of Finland, one of the leading research centers in Northern Europe.
Applications are sought in all appropriate disciplines, but applications in
biological sciences, chemistry, computer science, engineering and
environmental sciences are preferred. The award is open to candidates with
a PhD, but candidates with an MSc degree and strong expertise in their
