The InterRidge Office is pleased to announce the launch of the 2012 Student and Postdoctoral Fellowship Programme. As part of InterRidge’s mission to promote international, collaborative, and interdisciplinary studies of oceanic spreading centers, we invite proposals for InterRidge Student and Postdoctoral Fellowships of up to $5000 US each.

InterRidge has been successful in its bid for $45,000 from the ISA Endowment Fund. This will support 3 fellowships annually between 2012-14, for early career scientists from developing countries. InterRidge welcomes this support and looks forward to working in close association with ISA to encourage young scientists in their careers in marine research.

Please make every effort to attend the InterRidge Third Decade Planning meeting in San Francisco this December (just prior to the Fall AGU). InterRidge is YOUR programme. And this meeting is YOUR chance to influence its priorities over the next decade.

The successes of InterRidge are the successes of the whole ridge community. There is currently a rapidly growing economic and political interest in ridges and their resources. This pushes ridge science up the political and economic agenda and, as a result, the role of InterRidge is becoming ever more important. What do you think the big issues for ridge science are?
