FP7 People
There are, of course, many opportunities around the world that you may be able to take advantage of. This page summarises some of the large programmes and organisations in Europe and the USA, the world’s major centres of research.
Global
Human Frontier Science Program (HFSP)
The HFSP supports novel, innovative and interdisciplinary basic research focused on the complex mechanisms of living organisms; topics range from molecular and cellular approaches to systems and cognitive neuroscience. A clear emphasis is placed on novel collaborations that bring biologists together with scientists from fields such as physics, mathematics, chemistry, computer science and engineering to focus on problems at the frontier of the life sciences.
Europe
You first port of call for opportunities in Europe should be EURAXESS.
