Chair of excellence
This call for proposals aims at facilitating the installation of young promising scientists, coming from another region or a foreign country, within the framework of the ENP’s scientific program. A particular attention will be brought to the interdisciplinary or very innovative projects. The selection will be realized on the basis of the scientific quality of the candidates and the interest, for Neurosciences, of their coming in Île-de-France. The support, attributed in dialogue with the concerned supervisions, can include all or a part of the salary, an administrative support for the installation, research grants, post offices for the team (PhD, post-PhD, technician) for an amount of 350K€ for two-three years.
Post-docs
The ENP launches within the framework of its priority areas of research, a call for proposals intended to help the participating teams to attract high-level post-PhD, by allowing them to react quickly, while waiting for other fundings. A particular attention is given to interdisciplinary projects. The candidates profile includes: - Working for at least two years in another country than France - Scientific excellence attested by the curriculum and the publications and, if applicable, a specific expertise in a domain of special interest for the ENP. The support will be granted for a maximal period of one year and the host team must be committed to search for additional funding at the same time as the demand for the ENP grant.
