GENERAL INFORMATION
Research in Pairs at CIRM enable researchers to focus on specific projects, such as putting the final touches to an article or a book, working on a specific problem, starting a collaboration etc.

Teams of up to 4 people can apply to hold a Research in Pairs at CIRM (3 non-local participants can be totally subsidized for board and lodging). The application should describe in details what the objectives are and why this meeting could bring in some new developments regarding the chosen project. An up-to-date CV of each participant should be provided.

Research in Pairs can last from 1 to 2 weeks and exceptionally up to 3 weeks, depending on the content of the programme and on vacancies at CIRM.
  • Subsidized board and lodging for up to 3 non-local participants.
  • Applications are open all year round but note that this type of event runs alongside one or more larger events such as conferences or workshops.
