How it works:
Submit your project proposal through the form below before June 26th, 2024, in order to be considered for a grant of up to 5000 Euros to access the imaging services at one of FBI facilities. Projects will be evaluated by a committee including FBI node representants and the national coordination members. Successful applicants will be notified by mid July 2024 and successful projects should be carried out between September and November 2024.
What the grant covers:
This grant covers the user’s travel and accommodation costs as well as access and consumable costs at FBI imaging facilities. Each successful applicant is eligible for up to 5000 Euros of support.
Who is eligible:
The call is restricted to external users (national or international) of the targeted France-BioImaging facility, i.e. the applicant’s home University should not be within the institutional perimeter of the FBI facility hosting the project. Trans-Node access is eligible. Transnational projects and outside users are strongly encouraged to apply.
All academic scientists, regardless of gender, career phase, or field of interest, are eligible to apply. We strongly encourage early career researchers to apply for this grant.
Evaluation:
All applications will be evaluated for scientific excellence and technical feasibility by a committee including FBI Node representatives, FBI core facility staff representatives and the national coordination. Applicants are strongly encouraged to discuss their project and its technical feasibility with the targeted facility before submitting their project.
Up to 12 projects will be supported.
How to apply:
Applicants are invited to visit FBI website to discover the range of technologies provided by France-BioImaging facilities. Applicants are strongly encouraged to discuss their project and its technical feasibility with the targeted facility before submitting their project. Applicants will then submit their project filling out the form below.
Projects have to be written in English.
