CY Initiative launches its 5th call for proposals to support scientific excellence and the internationalisation of research

CY Initiative launches its 2021 Action Plan of CY Initiative to foster the development of scientific excellence and to structure the research strategy of the participating institutions and research teams.

Applications are invited to the following four calls for proposals:
  • An internal call for scientific projects open to researchers and faculty members of CY Initiative research centres, including two funding programmes: the AMBITION programme supporting ambitious, medium-term research programmes developed at the level of a research group or a research centre, and the EMERGENCE programme supporting innovative research projects of small teams of at least two researchers.
  • A call for external applications to the TALENT programme open to high-potential early-stage researchers (two to ten years of postdoctoral experience) wishing to develop their research activity in one of the CY Initiative research groups.
  • A call for external applications for the FELLOWSHIP IN RESIDENCE (FIR) program of CY Advanced Studies. This programme aims to promote internationalisation and interdisciplinarity by hosting visiting researchers (juniors and seniors) for a period of 4 to 12 months at CY Advanced Studies, in connection with the research centres of CY Initiative.
  • A call for applications open to researchers from the EUTOPIA Alliance for the EUTOPIA PhD CO-TUTELLE programme offering funding for co-tutelle theses between member universities of the EUTOPIA Alliance (call opening early 2021).
