Training the next generation of independent researchers and experts is a major priority for all EU-LIFE centers. Researchers are integrated in a multi-disciplinary network of basic and translational research centers with highly international research communities and access to cutting-edge technologies, a wide spectrum of conferences and seminars, and a complement of professional skills training and career development opportunities. EU-LIFE institutes run well-established PhD and postdoctoral training programs offering a broad range of subjects and training opportunities for PhD- and postdoctoral researchers. Together at EU-LIFE level, we amplify the scope of training activities to the whole network of EU-LIFE centres and provide benefit with specific activities e.g. to promote mobility while simultaneously sharing good policies and practices at institutional level regarding training strategies.
