ParisRegionFP

What is Paris Region fellowship Programme?

OVERVIEW OF THE PROGRAMME 

 > Second call : Fellows - Reserve List

The Paris Region ranks among the most competitive regions in the world for higher education, research and development, innovation and entrepreneurship.

The Paris Region Fellowship Programme (ParisRegionFP) aims to foster excellence in research, by training and developing international mobility and careers of outstanding researchers at post-doctoral level from a large panel of disciplines and of all nationalities.

These Experienced Researchers (ER) design and implement their original research project in a first-class research group of their choice belonging preferably to one of the 13 “Domain of Major Interest” (DMI) labels endorsed by the Paris Region. The DMIs are key research sectors on which the Paris Region focuses policy support and investments to strengthen its international attractiveness and intersectoral mobility.

Two calls of 2-year postdoctoral fellowships are planned to recruit a total of 52 ERs. The first call closed in October 2020 and recruited 26 fellows. The second call closed in October 2021 and each application will be evaluated by two international experts. Interviews are scheduled in March 2022.

ParisRegionFP offers a novel international, interdisciplinary and intersectoral training programme for ERs, covering scientific, academic and industrial topics in the identified key sectors (or DMI scientific themes) as well as hands-on knowledge in non-research oriented transferable skills. The educational and research programme is implemented by leading universities and 20 extra-academic partner organisations, covering actors from prestigious culture-related organisations and human resource actors to large industries and SMEs in various economic sectors.

The scientific actors ensure infrastructure capacity and high-level environment to conduct excellent research. Extra-academic partners contribute to the implementation of ParisRegionFP by hosting ERs during secondments or visits and/or by providing training, mentoring or career development opportunities.

ParisRegionFP reinforces network structuration and complete the existing programmes of the Paris Region and its partners for increased impact, by focusing on the recruitment and the training of international emerging leaders to foster research and innovation in the Paris Region.
