eSI runs an active visitor programme, which has the aim on increasing mutual understanding and collaboration between international researchers and the UK e Science programme. We welcome both international visitors and those from the UK, working either in academia or industry who are engaged in research, development, e-Science or the application of Grid technologies. We encourage diversity of disciplines and interests, and can help to match interests with researchers in the UK where appropriate.
Our support typically covers your travel and/or living costs, depending on the length of the stay. We will arrange accommodation for you and any immediate family you may wish to bring, however we do not normally offer to cover travel/living costs for your family members.
We are also happy to connect visitors with researchers in the regional e-Science Centres, and for regional e-Science Centres to suggest potential visitors.
What you can expect:
We hope that during your stay you will find opportunity to advance understanding and your own research.
