International
Outgoing mobility
The ED VAAME is launching its 2024 outgoing mobility call for its PhD students during their thesis.
Priority 1
6 grants of 800 euros are offered to help fund a PhD student's stay in a foreign laboratory:
-
2025 Outgoing Mobility Notice for Foreign Laboratory and Outgoing Mobility Grant Application Form for Foreign Laboratory
Priority 2
If the funds for Priority 1 are not fully used (due to a lack of eligible applications), 400-euro grants for travel to an international conference will be allocated.
Applications will be submitted on a rolling basis and reviewed by the "Professionalization and International" committee in May and October each year.
The funds will be allocated to research units, not directly to the PhD students.
"The possibility of spending a month at CSIRO in Canberra was a very enriching experience for my thesis. This allowed me to train in new techniques, meet new people with various expertises and take a fresh look at my current work. Not to mention the pleasure of enjoying the discovery of a new country, its culture and its specialities."
From Logan Suteau
"During this three-week stay at CSIRO, we worked with Simon Law to design and lead the first part of a workshop in the 'Biologicals and Farming Systems Integration Workshops' series on the theme of design and use of Synthetic Communities. I designed and animated the Synthetic Communities Design part. This stay also allowed me to discover and carry out RNA extraction protocols from seedlings, as well as to exchange with different researchers on their research topics, including a very interesting discussion on the models used to predict microbiota functions. We have also developed the plan of a review that we will shortly submit, for which Logan Suteau, Marie Simonin (our common supervisor), Simon Law is a rich. It would not have been possible without the different sources of funding, which I thank."
From Louna Colaert-Sentenac
"Participating in the GRS/GRC 2025 was a unique and particularly rewarding experience.
This stay in Andover gave me the opportunity to engage with numerous researchers and discover a scientific environment that was both stimulating and open.
I was also fortunate to present my work through a poster and an oral presentation, two special moments of sharing and scientific discussion. This experience provided me with great motivation and will remain a significant milestone in my doctoral journey."
