Successful applicants to the Fondecyt national postdoctoral grant will join our Institute in the next few months, coming from Chile, México, Belgium, India and Spain. Their research projects will cover a wide range of topics, including dwarf stars, planetary nebulae, black hole accretion, observational cosmology and cosmological simulations. Four out of the five new postdocs were sponsored by the young faculty members that joined our Institute in 2014, evidencing the multiplicative effect of the rapid growth of the Institute. The new Fondecyt postdoctoral fellows joining IFA amount to 5 out of a total of 11 successful applicants sponsored by the University of Valparaiso this year.
The new investigators are Drs. Alba Aller, Juan Magaña, Santanu Mondal, Alejandra Muñoz and Joris Vos.
