As part of the programme’s activities, grants for short visits for doctoral students and for visits for post-doctoral fellows are being offered to enable scientists working in the field of plant adaptation to travel to a laboratory in another European country.
To be considered for a grant a candidate has to:undertake work applicable to the programme; apply for a stay in a laboratory in a European country other than the country of origin; young scientists without a PhD may apply for visits of one to six months; postdoctoral fellows may apply for visits up to a year; priority is given to first time applicants and to first time host laboratories.
All applications must be supported by a letter of recommendation from someone familiar with the candidate's work and a letter of acceptance from the collaborator/supervisor at the receiving institute. Full details online.
