I am assisting DIUS to identify appropriate post-doctoral fellows for their China Fellowships programme (see below). I would therefore appreciate your help by forwarding this notice to any of your colleagues who might be interested in applying.

UK-China Fellowships for Excellence: 2009 Round 2
The Department for Innovation, Universities and Skills (DIUS) are pleased to announce Round 2 of the 2009 Fellowships for Excellence Programme (this in addition to the previous Round which ended July 2009). Up to 20 post-doctoral scholarships are available to top researchers who are based in either an English university or research institution wishing to undertake research in China or Hong Kong from Autumn 2009.
The Fellowships for Excellence scheme forms a central part of the Sino-UK Partners in Education programme and, so far, has enabled 30 or so young and outstanding post doctoral researchers to study and conduct cutting edge research at a Chinese university or research institution for up to one year. The 2009 tranche of awards will provide funding for up to 15 new awards for post doctoral researchers to undertake research and create lasting research links with a Chinese research department. Applications are welcome from all disciplines although preference will be given to areas directly related to science and technology. We would welcome especially applications from Sports Science researchers in recognition of each country’s hosting of the Olympic Games in 2008 and 2012.
In addition, a further 5 awards will be made available in 2009 for UK based researchers wishing to undertake research in Hong Kong.
Completed application forms should be sent electronically to uk.china@jiu.gsi.gov.uk by 30 October 2009.
