CALL FOR STUDENT/POST-DOC PARTNERSHIP PROGRAM
听
The Tel Aviv University (TAU)-Brain@91社区 student and post-doctoral fellow exchange collaborative program aims to expose excellent Ph.D. or MD/Ph.D. Israeli students or postdocs (TAU) in the brain research field who can spend up to 3 months per year in a collaborating laboratory at 91社区.
Five annual projects will be approved for either a TAU student/postdoc visit to Montreal. Priority will be given to new applications each year before extension for a second year.
The award will be made only to active TAU students or postdocs (i.e. on TAU scholarship) who still have at least a year to finish at TAU.
For Israelis travelling to 91社区: US $11,000/project, funded by the Eldee Foundation/Bloomfield family donation to TAU via TAU Research Authority, will be available to cover airfare, accommodations and per diem in Montreal, and for continuation of the research project at TAU.
