Dear ISWI Participant:

There are three items again today:

Item 1 In the coming months and years, it is expected that there will be more and more collaboration between ISWI and ICTP. For those of you not familiar with ICTP, I am pleased to attach an introduction to its work (first attached pdf).


Item 2 Here is a great link for all of you:

http://unoosa.org/oosa/en/COPUOS/stsc/2013/presentations.html
With it, you have access to all of the technical presentations delivered during the just-concluded 50th session of STSC of COPUOS in Vienna. This is a very handy link.

Webmaster Note: We keep links to these presentations on our website
(Publications -> Presentations on other sites)


Item 3 There are two post doc openings here: "Equatorial and low latitude Ionosphere, Mesosphere and thermosphere, Physics and Astronomy, Universidade do Vale do Paraiba (UNIVAP), Sao Jose dos Campos, Sao Paulo, Brazil." For details, please see the second attached pdf

Most humbly yours,
George Maeda
