SPECIAL AMERICAS REGIONAL OPPORTUNITIES The Department of Energy and the NSF support a limited number of Pan American Advanced Studies Institutes (PASI) modeled on the NATO Advanced Studies Institutes. Pan American Advanced Studies Institutes are short courses of two to four weeks duration at the advanced graduate and postgraduate level. PASIs aim to disseminate advanced scientific knowledge and stimulate training and cooperation among researchers of the Americas in the basic sciences and engineering fields. Currently, only institutes in any physical, mathematical, biological science discipline and/or engineering may be supported. Whenever feasible, an interdisciplinary approach is recommended. Guidelines for the competition can be found in Program Announcement NSF 03-506. Deadline is January January 15, annually.
