________________________________ From: Sarah Fores <office(a)euro-online.org> Sent: Monday, 27 January 2025 21:56 Dear National Societies, EURO Forums and EURO working groups, The deadline for NATCOR bursaries is approaching (31st January) and I would be grateful if you could remind your colleagues about this successful initiative. Best wishes. Sarah EURO Support for NATCOR Bursaries https://www.euro-online.org/web/pages/1568/natcor-bursaries NATCOR (http://www.natcor.ac.uk/), a National Taught Course Centre in Operational Research, delivers taught courses to PhD students, from across Europe, on a number of different topics in OR. Attending Courses EURO is advertising a competition for bursaries for courses run in 2025. The NATCOR course fees and on-site accommodation (if applicable) will be funded by EURO for successful candidates. Typically, accommodation for any residential courses will be four nights bed and breakfast. If additional or alternative accommodation is required, candidates will need to arrange and pay for this. Also any extra costs incurred will need to be settled personally. Please also be reminded that successful candidates requiring visas will need to apply for these in good time. Eligibility Applicants must be PhD students, from one of the EURO member countries or studying in one of the EURO member countries (see https://www.euro-online.org/web/pages/1457/current-member-societies). UK applicants may also be eligible for one of the NATCOR bursaries<https://www.natcor.ac.uk/bursaries/>). Applicants must have good English Language skills as all NATCOR courses will be in English. Preference will be given to students in their first or second years but all are welcome to apply. Preference will also be given to applicants who have not previously received support from EURO for NATCOR or other PhD schools. (Note: students from the UK may apply for bursaries from ORS/NATCOR.)<https://www.natcor.ac.uk/bursaries/> Application To apply for a bursary, candidates from a EURO member society country, or studying in a EURO member society country, should submit a zip file containing the application form, their curriculum vitae (including their academic track record), a letter outlining their motivation to attend, and a letter of recommendation from their supervisor. Applicants should declare on their application if they are receiving any additional support from their PhD funding body or other sponsor. Selection Process The EURO VP2 selects and ranks (in the case of more than one accepted from the same country) the candidates. When accepting the candidates the VP2 should aim at a good distribution of the participants among the EURO member societies. Current Call - Important Dates Submit documents (see above) to https://www.euro-online.org/awards/natcor2025/registration.php.

Sad News (Henrik Juel)
by Anita Schoebel 05 Jan '25

05 Jan '25

Dear colleagues from location science, dear ISOLDE participants, it is with great sadness that I give you the news that two days ago, on 3rd January, Henrik Juel passed away. Many of us know Henrik from the ISOLDE conferences. Together with Tim Lowe and Gilbert Laporte he was the only one who took part in ALL of the first 11 ISOLDE conferences! After his retirement he still was active, e.g., solving Chess problems, even winning the Danish competition. His daughter informed me that he passed away at home with his family around. Henrik was a great scientist with many contributions to location science. We will always remember him as a wonderful person. Kind regards, Anita -- Prof. Dr. Anita Schöbel Institutsleiterin Fraunhofer-Institut für Techno- und Wirtschaftsmathematik ITWM Fraunhofer-Platz 1 67663 Kaiserslautern Tel: +49 (0)631 31600 1002 mail: anita.schoebel(a)itwm.fraunhofer.de
