Whitfeld Fellowships
The purpose of the Whitfeld Fellowships is to provide
support to students to prepare publications arising from their theses
and to prepare a grant application. In 2007, two Whitfeld
Fellowships may be offered to PhD students who submit their theses or
plan and be in a position to submit their thesis within six months of
the application closing date.
These Fellowships will
be offered in one competitive round, closing 8 June 2007. In order to
be eligible for these Fellowships, the nominee must have submitted
their thesis for examination within six months before the nomination
deadline, or intend to submit within six months after the nomination
deadline.
These fellowships will be paid at the rate
of a half-time Research Associate Level A (Step 1) appointment,
providing an income of approximately $10,000 (taxable) for a maximum of
six months following submission of the thesis for examination. Check the Scholarships website for details.

About robyn.owens
I started my academic life doing a BSc (Hons) in Mathematics at UWA before going to Oxford to complete an MSc and a DPhil, also in Mathematics. I then spent three years in Paris at l'Université de Paris-Sud, Orsay, continuing research in mathematical analysis and going to lots of movies before returning to UWA to work as a research mathematician.
I have lectured in Maths and Computer Science at UWA, as well as for short periods at Berkeley, The University of Canterbury in Christchurch, and Prince Songkla University in Thailand. My research has focussed on computer vision, including feature detection in images, 3D shape measurement, image understanding, and representation.
