Dear All,

We are searching for strongly motivated young scientists at both the Early Stage 
(PhD) and Experienced (PostDoc) level in the frame of TOPOMOD, a training 
project designed to investigate and model the origin and evolution of topography 
of the continents over a wide range of spatial and temporal scales.

TOPOMOD will provide to 13 Early Stage Researchers/PhD students and 2 
Experienced researchers/Postdocs : i) state-of-the-art concepts and leading edge 
research techniques that are essential to study the behavior of complex natural 
systems, ii) a strong career management skills with practical courses and 
activities; iii) solid professional connections with industry; iv) a 
socially-oriented skill on environmental risks management.

*TOPOMOD* (*Sculpting the Earth’s topography: insights from modelling 
deep–surface processes*) is a Marie Curie Initial Training Network in the 7 th 
Framework Programme of the European Commission. Its aim is research and training 
to investigate and modeling origin and evolution of topography of the continents 
over a wide range of spatial and temporal scales. The 4-year project started on 
*January 1, 2011*. The network is coordinated by the Department of Geology of 
the University “Roma TREâ€, Italy.

The TOPOMOD network offer *13 Ph.D. and 2 post-doc positions* in various fields 
of Earths Sciences, combining geophysics, geochemistry, tectonics and structural 
geology with advanced geodynamic modelling. The network organizes yearly open 
research-and-training workshops and special session at international 
meetings.Positions are available in 8 partner institutions within Europe, 
including *Italy *(Università “Roma Treâ€), the *Netherlands*(VU-University 
Amsterdam, The Netherlands),
*Germany *(Helmholtz-Zentrum, Potsdam), *Switzerland* (Eidgenössische Technische 
Hochschule, Zurich), *United Kingdom* (University of Durham and University of 
Cambridge), *France* (University of Rennes I). *Spain*(Consejo Superior de 
Investigaciones Científicas, Barcelona).

The network is completed by the active collaboration of 1 research institution 
(CNR-Italy), 3 high-technology enterprises (Malvern Instruments, G.O. Logical 
Consulting, TNO) and 1 large multinational oil/gas company (ENI). The fellows 
will work in their host institute with tight collaboration with other partner 
institutes in the network.

TOPOMOD fellows receive a Marie Curie salary. Salaries are complemented by 
substantial support for mobility, career development and travel.

Further information on application procedures is available on the project 
webpage (<http://www.topomod.eu/>www.topomod.eu) or by contacting the TOPOMOD 
project administrator,
Paola Conti <mailto:topomod en uniroma3.it>topomod en uniroma3.it. Applications are 
accepted until all position are filled. Update on the status of each position 
will be reported on the project www pages.
