A PhD scholarship investigating the physiological ecology of forest succession is available at Macquarie University. The successful applicant will work in conjunction with an ARC Discovery Project headed by Dr. Chris Lusk, in the Department of Biological Sciences. Work will focus on understanding traits associated with adaptation of juvenile plants to different light environments, and there is ample scope for the student's own
input into project design.
The scholarship is available to Australian or international students. Applicants should have equivalent research qualifications to an Australia undergraduate degree with first class honours (such as a Masters with a substantial thesis component) in a relevant discipline.

SCMP MQRES CRSI Recognition PhD
Scholarship<http://thescholarindonesia.com/detail?oid=&fid=&iid=281>
There are numerous domains in which the theory of recognition (especially the work of Axel Honneth) might be applied to better understand the experience of minority communities in Australia. These might include, for example, the experience of Muslim populations in Australian cities, or the contemporary working and life conditions among migrant workers.
The Centre for Research on Social Inclusion seeks expressions of interests from students wishing to explore the applicability of recognition theory in relation to migrant communities in Australia through a case study to be developed in discussion with the supervisory team and the student.

MQRES European Union Phd
Scholarship<http://thescholarindonesia.com/detail/?oid=&fid=&iid=278>
In 2008, the IUEU Centre will be offering two scholarships for PhD research projects focused on the European Union, the integration process in general, or related areas of research. Applicants may be based in Politics, International Relations, History, Law, Economics, Commerce, EU Languages and Cultural Studies, or another discipline appropriate to the particular proposal.
The IUEU Centre is based on a consortium of six universities, with La Trobe and Macquarie as the two principal nodes and Griffith, Newcastle, Flinders and Murdoch as partner universities. This scholarship will be based with the principal supervisor at Macquarie University, but the Centre will facilitate co-supervision of appropriate expertise from another university in the consortium.

The successful candidate will undertake PhD research on design and fabrication of novel microfluidic devices for microbiology.
The field of microfluidics concerns itself with a wide variety of interdisciplinary topics including fundamental questions in biology chemistry and physics. This project will involve the design and fabrication of microfluidic devices for concentrating and separating microbes, allowing for faster and earlier detection of dangerous organisms in fluids ranging from drinking water to blood. Fabrication will be done using an in-house semiconductor fabrication facility, and characterization will be done using state of the art facilities in the biology department. The skills gained in this PhD project will be valuable in the growing field of biotechnology.
