Ich durfte/darf an einem Weiterbildungskurs zur Drittmittel-Beschaffung der PRO-WISS an der Universität Zürich teilnehmen. Ein Teil der Hausaufgabe ist es, interessante Antragsformulare der möglichen Geldgeber herunterzuladen. Folgende Links sind dafür interessant:

Bund Ressortforschung
Schweizerischer National Fonds
Kommission für Technologie und Innovation (KTI)
EUREKA / CH
IMS / CH
European COoperation in the field of Scientific and Technical Research (COST) / CH
EU Rahmenprogramme / CH
European Science Foundation
Stiftungen

One of our hard-working students has sent me his list of bookmarks to the scientific journals that are relevant for our studies (mainly surface science, materials science, and electrochemistry). I thought it is maybe a good idea to blog that list. So I have access to it from anywhere in the world and maybe the one or other visitor is interested in that Link-List as well.
I have put a link in the sidebar, the URL is:

Let me know if anything is missing…

Proton exchange membrane fuel cells are at present in the forefront of all types of fuel cells because of the quantum jumps in its technology since its application in the 1960s in NASAs Gemini space flights as an auxiliary power source. PEMFC technology since the 1960s highlights the quantum jumps both in the fundamental areas of research (Part I) and in the engineering and technology and developmental (Part II), which are leading to the era of promising applications.

Remark:
nice review

On Friday 26 January the 23nd Annual Meeting of the Schweizerische Arbeitsgemeinschaft Oberflächen und Grenzflächen (SAOG) bzw. Groupe Suisse de Travail Surfaces and Interfaces (GSSI) will take place at the University of Fribourg (Institut de Physique Pérolles).
Topic this year is:
Controlled Growth of Surface Nanostructures
The final Program can be found at saog-gssi.org.

The meeting starts at 9:30 with an invited talk of Gabor A. Somorjai from the University of California, Berkeley, he will talk about “Frontiers of surface chemistry: The nanoscience of heterogeneous catalysis and the evolution of molecular surface biology“, so I have to leave at around 7:00 in order to be in time.

also interesting for me:
14.00 invited lecture: Prof. Manfred Kappes, Phys. Chemistry, U Karlsruhe, Germany
Growing carbon nanostructures by ion beam soft landing
