The partners describe the objective of the project, its link with DATAIA, the work already completed by the student and by the partners and the intended contribution during the allocated time. The expected results (software, publications) should be described.

Required information

The application must include :

  • Names of the host laboratories and project leaders and their contact information
  • Names of laboratories (or teams) of the convergence institute that will benefit from the funding
  • Names, contact details of the scientific and administrative managers within each laboratory (team) of DATAIA partners receiving funds
