Collaborative Research Visits:
Neutron Sciences Career Development Program
Research Opportunities in Neutron Science
The Neutron Scattering Science Division (NSSD) at Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) would like to draw your attention to new collaborative opportunities for visiting researchers. Possibilities exist for faculty sabbaticals during the summer or academic year. In addition, it is anticipated that funding will be available for short- and long-term research placements for university-based postdoctoral fellows and graduate students to pursue research using neutron scattering at ORNL. This will allow students, postdoctoral fellows, and their academic mentors to participate in exciting world-leading research in collaboration with ORNL scientific staff, using unique state-of-the-art facilities at the Spallation Neutron Source (SNS) and the High Flux Isotope Reactor (HFIR). Additional benefits include the chance to meet and interact with many other leading scientists who visit ORNL’s neutron scattering facilities to pursue their own research. The scientific areas are open to any branch of materials-based research that can use neutron scattering, including biology, chemistry, engineering, and physics.
Visiting Student Thesis Research Program
Short and long term opportunities for university-based graduate students to pursue thesis-related research using neutron scattering at ORNL in collaboration with ORNL staff.
Visiting Postdoctoral Research Program
Short and long term opportunities for university-based postdoctoral fellows to engage in collaborative research and development using neutron scattering as a primary research tool, mainly on the HFIR and SNS instruments. Collaboration can be with research staff in NSSD and with scientists in other divisions of ORNL.
Faculty Research Sabbaticals
The Faculty Research Sabbaticals Program offers summer and academic year sabbatical programs that will draw the best scientific talent from institutions all over the world to interact with the resident staff and user communities.
A detailed announcement of the program will be made in the near future, with formal applications for the first round due December 15, 2009. For more information please feel free to contact us at nsvisit@ornl.gov.

Prospective postdoctoral fellows: Recent or new PhD graduates interested in postdoctoral employment at ORNL can find a full listing of available positions through the ORNL Postdoctoral Research Associates Program and/or the Postmaster's Research Participation Program.
Prospective graduate students: Possibilities exist for graduate students from selected institutions to pursue full-time thesis research at ORNL under the supervision of ORNL research staff. More information may be available from your university department’s graduate coordinator, or inquire at nsvisit@ornl.gov.
