We hereby inform you of the launch of calls for applications for the following bilateral and multilateral PHC Research Programmes (Hubert Curien Programmes) and other International Research Programmes aimed at initiating or consolidating scientific partnerships between research units:

Taking into account the current crisis situation and the resulting working conditions, the DRV will be in contact with Campus France regarding the failure to obtain the required visa from the Establishment for these programs: Please make sure to send a copy of your application to the DRV (contact below).

As a reminder:
The aim of these programmes is to develop quality scientific and technological exchanges between the research laboratories of the two scientific communities, by encouraging new cooperation or the development of new fields.
The funding allocated is mainly intended to finance the "additional international cost" of the projects, i.e. the mobility of the researchers involved in these partnerships.
General selection criteria: in addition to scientific excellence, the main assessment criteria are: the complementarity of the teams, the mutual transfer of skills, the foreseeable scientific or industrial spin-offs AND the participation of doctoral students and/or young scientists (postdocs) in the mobility.
