Research in Pairs

RESEARCH IN PAIRS

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.
The application should describe in details what the objectives are and why this meeting could bring in some new developments regarding the chosen project.

Teams can gather up to 4 people ; up to 3 participants are totally subsidized for board and lodging at the centre.

Cirm insists on welcoming groups who are international, of all genders and with diverse experience (i.e a mixture of early career researchers and more mature researchers).

Research in Pairs usually last 1 or 2 weeks - and exceptionally up to 3 weeks. This may depend on the content of the programme and on vacancies at Cirm at the chosen period.

A bit more information...

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. The calendar gets filled up quickly and Cirm cannot host more than two research in pairs per month in general.

Each proposal is studied by members of Cirm's International Scientific Committee. A decision is usually made within 4 weeks after receiving the proposal.

If the proposal is successful, the Event Coordinator contacts the main proposer to find suitable dates.

Research in pairs follow the same pattern as other events and run from a Sunday night / or Monday morning to the following Friday (for one week) or to the Friday two weeks later (in the case of a two-week event).
