The Turing Centenary Conference in Manchester will see the beginning of the 3-year Turing Centenary Research Project - "Mind, Mechanism and Mathematics", also funded by the John Templeton Foundation. As part of the Alan Turing Year, proposals are invited for: *** Five Turing Research Fellowships for researchers no more than 10 years from the award of a PhD relevant to their proposed research, value 75,000 UK pounds each, and *** Three Turing Scholarships for gifted younger researchers of age up to 25 years old, value 45,000 UK pounds each over the three years. Each Award may be held at a location of the winner's choice, and may be held as a valuable supplement to other funding. For further details of eligibility etc, please see the How to Apply webpage at the Alan Turing Year website: http://www.mathcomp.leeds.ac.uk/turing2012/give-page.php?409 The Research Project will address a number of major questions related to the Turing legacy, and are listed at the Turing Centenary Research Project webpage: http://www.mathcomp.leeds.ac.uk/turing2012/give-page.php?408 under four main headings: 1. The Mathematics of Emergence: The Mysteries of Morphogenesis 2. Possibility of Building a Brain: Intelligent Machines, Practice and Theory 3. Nature of Information: Complexity, Randomness, Hiddenness of Information 4. How should we compute? New Models of Logic and Computation.
