A cerebral solution for star-crossed stargazers
Article Abstract:
An overview of the Carolune Institute for Quality Astronomy (CiQuA) and the opportunity it offers academics in the astronomy field to receive fellowships without having to move to a new location, thereby helping them keep their relationships intact. Many academics are faced with the dilemma when they are offered a new position of how to advance their career without putting their relationships at risk. CiQuA is web-based and, therefore, recipients of its fellowships do not need to relocate to carry out their research.
