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.

The Associates programme is designed for scientists aged between 36 and 45 who hold a PhD and are
working in developing countries.

It 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.
