A postdoctoral position in numerical analysis at Universita di Catania has been advertised at https://www.unict.it/it/bandi/ricerca-e-trasferimento-tecnologico/dipartimento-di-matematica-e-informatica-selezione-7 The duration of the contract is 12 months with possible renewing. The deadline for applications is 29th April 2024. This contract is part of the PRIN 2022 project "Efficient numerical schemes and optimal control methods for time-dependent partial differential equations", in collaboration with the University of Ferrara (Walter Boscheri, PI), Verona (Giacomo Albi) and Trento (Ilya Peshkov). The project aims to develop a fourth-order accurate numerical method for solving the Navier-Stokes equations in moving domains, with the potential for extending its accuracy to higher orders. This method adopts a monolithic approach, solving the equations simultaneously and resulting in a large linear system at each time step. The numerical algorithm will be implemented on 3D parallel architectures, making extensive use of MPI and PETSc libraries. This method falls under the category of unfitted boundary methods, where the domain is immersed in a fixed grid and curved boundaries are handled using ghost-point techniques. Spatial multiscale effects, influenced by potential high curvature of the boundaries, will be addressed using a multigrid approach. For clarifications, please contact Armando Coco at armando.coco@unict.it.

Funded under Horizon Europe, the project entitled POLICY ANSWERS – R&I POLICY making, implementation ANd Support in the WEsteRn BalkanS (https://www.westernbalkans-infohub.eu/about/) was launched on 1 March 2022. Positioned well in line with the EU Western Balkans[1] (WB) Agenda on Innovation, Research, Education, Culture, Youth and Sport (WB Agenda), POLICY ANSWERS monitors and supports policy coordination within the EU-WB cooperation, but also provides capacity building and pilot actions in the WB to contribute to the region’s EU integration process and to strengthen their innovation ecosystems. This pilot regional mobility scheme launched by POLICY ANSWERS has a call budget of EUR 100,000. It should build the foundation for a follow-up measure to be funded by regional, economy-level or international stakeholders. The aim of this scheme is to enhance regional cooperation and sustained support in mobility-driven R&I and – by fostering the interconnectedness of the WB – to support sustainable economic growth, a common regional market, societal resilience and convergence of the WB with the EU. Enhanced cooperation and sustained support in mobility-driven R&I are also pivotal for equipping the WB with the requisite tools and knowledge to address shared challenges, such as climate change and digital transformation, while fostering a generation of innovators who can reshape the region’s future. These aims should be achieved by fostering brain circulation and encourage brain retention within the WB at an early stage of the researchers’ careers. The young researchers will initiate new contacts and networks to strengthen the links between the regions’ economies and build new bridges between them. Additionally, this scheme will support excellence in research in the WB. Furthermore, it will promote and support the Open Access use of the huge amount of underused research infrastructure (facilities, resources and services) across the WB. This mobility scheme is supported by the Danube Rectors’ Conference (DRC, https://www.drc-danube.org) and the Rectors’ Forum of Southeast Europe and Western Balkans (RF SEEWB, https://www.uni-lj.si/study/rectors-forum-SEE-WB). A project within this scheme must fulfil each of these three criteria: It must use (1) short-term mobility within the WB and (2) specialised equipment or facilities (research infrastructures) in another WB economy in order to (3) do research. Only mobility projects in the field of research will be funded. Mobility must comprise the physical presence of an early-career researcher – as the recipient of the financial support – for a duration of between two weeks and two months at a location in a different WB economy, that allows access to a research infrastructure. The overall duration of the project must be between two weeks and six months, which allows enough time for the exploitation of the results of the mobility. During the project several visits to the same RI are eligible, but not to a different RI in the same or in another WB economy. This scheme addresses early-career researchers (ECR) only, which means that only PhD students and Postdocs, whose doctorate was awarded no longer than seven years before the deadline of this call, are eligible as applicants. The ECR must be affiliated to a home institution, which must be located in the WB. The home institution must be a research performing organisation (RPO) or higher education institutions (HEI) (public or private) that has to be registered and accredited in the WB. Companies are not eligible as home institution. In order to initiate a sustainable and long-term cooperation between the home and the host institution, it is encouraged that the ECR be involved in accompanying activities at the host institution like training, capacity building, soft skill development etc. By definition, a research infrastructure is a set of facilities, resources and services that are used by the research communities to conduct research and foster innovation in their respective fields. It includes: major scientific equipment (or sets of instruments), knowledge-based resources such as collections, archives and scientific data, e-infrastructures, such as data and computing systems and communication networks and any other tools that are essential to achieve excellence in research and innovation[2],[3]. All public or private RPOs or HEI in the WB that are registered in one WB economy under the respective law and provide research infrastructures (as defined above) are eligible as host institution for the recipient; this includes virtual research infrastructures, if an added value of the mobility is evident. The hosting institution is obliged to provide a counsellor (which could be a mentor or a peer) as central contact person for the ECR. In order to boost the regional cooperation, all thematic research areas are eligible (including Social Sciences and Humanities (SSH) and arts-based research). Applications that address the twin transition (green and digital) of the WB and priorities mentioned in research strategies of the WB economies (respective Smart Specialisation Strategies/S3) are particularly welcome. The project must have a civilian purpose. The financial support for the recipients is given according to the Horizon Europe regulations for Financial Support to Third Parties. This means that the following regulations in the POLICY ANSWERS grant agreement (GA) also apply to the recipient, who has to: prevent that the implementation of the project is compromised for reasons involving family, emotional life, political or ethnic affinity etc. (‘conflict of interests’, article 12 GA), keep confidential any data, documents or other material that is identified as sensitive in writing (‘sensitive information’) (‘confidentiality and security’, article 13 GA), carry out the action in line with the highest ethical standards and to commit to and ensure the respect of basic EU values (such as respect for human dignity, freedom, democracy etc.) (‘ethics and values’, article 14 GA), acknowledge the EU support and display the European flag (emblem) and funding statement in all communication activities related to the action like media relations, conferences, seminars etc (‘communication, dissemination and visibility’, article 17.2 GA), provide any information requested in order to verify eligibility of the costs or contributions declared, proper implementation of the action etc. (‘general information obligations’, article 19 GA), keep records and other supporting documents to prove the proper implementation of the action (‘record-keeping’, article 20 GA), accept that the granting authority – the European Commission – and other European bodies as the European Anti-Fraud Office (OLAF) etc. may also carry out checks, project reviews, audits and investigations during the action or afterwards (‘checks, reviews, audits and investigations — extension of findings’, article 25 GA). Further information is available in the draft of the “financial support contract” of this scheme as part of the “guide for applicants”. The recipients and the counsellors are obliged to participate in evaluative measures and to provide information for the evaluation of the success of the funding measure. The financial support will be given as a grant with a maximum sum of EUR 5,000 per project. The funding will be given as non-refundable grant in two instalments, with a first share as pre-financing (75%), and a second share after approval of the final report (25%). Eligible costs are supported by: an “allowance unit cost” of EUR 75 per day of the stay – resulting in EUR 2,250 per month (30 days) – to compensate for all travel costs and living allowances of the recipient (including cost for visa etc.); any cost that occurs at the host institution like accession fees, consumables etc.; costs for exploitation of project results (visibility, publication of scientific article, etc.); Costs of category (2) and (3) are accounted for as direct costs only (with VAT) that have to be actual, economic and necessary. Health, accident and personal liability insurances for the time of mobility have to be taken out by the recipients at their own expense. The financial support may not be used to cover costs that are already covered by other sources. The financial support is not renewable.

The Fili B era at Arizona is officially over. Sophomore wing Filip Borovicanin is set to enter the NCAA transfer portal, making him the second Wildcat to do so on Monday. The 6-foot-9 Borovicanin appeared in 34 games for the UA over two seasons, including 20 in 2023-24. He averaged 1.9 points, 1.3 rebounds and 0.6 assists, shooting 44.2 percent from the field and 83.3 percent from the line. Borovicanin scored a career-best 11 points in the season opener against Morgan State and had eight a week later against Southern. But he played double-digit minutes only once in Pac-12 play, in the opener at Cal, as Arizona’s rotation remained eight throughout the season. A native of Serbia, Borovicanin averaged 14.1 points, 7.3 rebounds and 2.7 assists in seven games for his country in the FIBA U19 World Cup last summer. https://www.azdesertswarm.com/basketball/2024/4/1/24118137/arizona-wildcats-mens-basketball-filip-borovicanin-ncaa-transfer-portal-serbia-paulius-murauskas
