description
Plant Fellows is a new international post doc fellowship programme in the field of plant sciences co-funded by FP7 Marie Curie Actions – People, Co-funding of Regional, National and International Programmes (COFUND).
Plant Fellows is centrally managed at the Zurich-Basel Plant Science Center. The Zurich-Basel Plant Science Center is a competence center of three Swiss universities, the University of Zurich, the University of Basel and the ETH Zurich. The University of Zurich will act as the coordinator of Plant Fellows. Professor Ueli Grossniklaus at the University of Zurich is chair of the programme.
Plant Fellows is open to applicants from all over the world. 14 European and 7 international universities and research institutes and 3 industry partners have been predefined as host organisations on the basis of their excellence in higher education and plant research.
Plant Fellows offers 66 new post doc fellowships spread between three different schemes (incoming, outgoing and reintegration) and a structured training programme, including workshops, dedicated training in complementary skills and industrial placements. Unique in its kind, the fellows of the programme have the opportunity to obtain a Plant Fellows Training Certification after successfully completing the whole training programme.
Plant Fellows thus aims at establishing a training and qualification framework in the area of life-long learning/vocational training, which complements the present postdoctoral training in plant sciences with an international competitive dimension.
