EU-LIFE launches a Visiting Postdoctoral seminars programme

After the EU-LIFE Visiting Scientist programme, EU-LIFE is launching a new programme to stimulate interaction and collaboration between the scientists of the alliance. The Visiting Postdoctoral EU-LIFE seminars programme is offering a great opportunity for Postdocs to visit other EU-LIFE institutes by giving a talk about their work and the future direction they might take as an independent researcher. 

The programme aims to support Postdocs on the academic career track with a pilot project that funds two Postdocs per year per institute to travel to a partner EU-LIFE institute to give talks about their work and future directions they might take as independent researchers. In this way, these talks support international networking, help to boost a candidate’s career profile and should be seen as ‘practice’ job talks for independent positions.

We invite Postdocs of EU-LIFE in their 3rd Postdoc year or later planning to apply for an independent research positions within the next 12 months to apply for an EU-LIFE postdoc seminar speaker slot at one of our partner EU-LIFE institutes.

APPLICATIONS CLOSED since Dec 1st 2019.

Your application will be reviewed by your institute and the hosting institute’s selection committees. If your application is selected for a talk at one of the partner institutes on the list you provided, you will be notified and put in contact with the EU-LIFE representative at that institute for further organizational details.
