Sciama Legacy Bursary
In memory of Professor Dennis Sciama (Head of the Astrophysics Sector of SISSA from 1983 to 1998), the Sciama Family has decided to finance bursaries to enable SISSA astrophysics or astroparticle physics postdoctoral fellows ("titolare di assegno di ricerca") to visit certain high-profile international institutes with which Prof. Sciama had particular connections. The intention is for these to be working visits aimed at fostering links and establishing possible ongoing collaborations.
At present the institutes covered by this program are:- DAMTP, Cambridge
- Oxford Astrophysics
- Portsmouth, Institute of Cosmology and Gravitation
