	            Junior Members Scheme
	            =====================


The Newton Institute recognises that junior researchers have much to
contribute to and much to gain from Institute programmes and events,
and has therefore introduced the Junior Members Scheme. To be eligible
for Junior Membership of the Institute you must be a Research Student
or within 5 years of having received a PhD (with appropriate allowance
for career breaks) and you must work or study in a UK University or a
related research institution.

Junior members will receive:

* A bulletin giving regular advance information about programmes,
  workshops, conferences and other Institute events

* Information about suitable sources of funding or support for visits
  to the Institute, when available.


Newton Institute Junior Member Grants
-------------------------------------

The Institute will make available some of its general funds
specifically to support junior researchers' involvement in Institute
activities. The types of involvement to be supported include (but are
not limited to) attendance at workshops, conferences etc, and visits
of up to 2 weeks to work or study with longer-term participants in the
Institute's programmes.
