In partnership with the FNP, the Paris Brain Institute and the CEA, this first call for projects for the International PHD Program 2022-2023 of the DIM C-BRAINS led to the submission of 71 subjects, all of high quality.

One of the major objectives of the DIM C-BRAINS is to help train a new generation of researchers in neuroscience and cognition, by strengthening the attractiveness and visibility of research in the Paris region at the highest international level.

This international doctoral program is specifically dedicated to students currently enrolled in a master's program and/or internship outside France, who would like to pursue a thesis in one of the C-BRAINS DIM priority areas. In addition to being competitive, it offers a 3-year remuneration package, a bonus as well as assistance with settling in the Paris region, a training budget and French language courses.

A total of 12 eligible proposals were selected on the basis of an evaluation by a panel of experts who met from May 22 to 24, 2023.

• 7 students recruited by DIM C-BRAINS

• 5 students recruited by the Paris Brain Institute

Finally, the last stage for our young recruits remains recruitment and enrolment in the doctoral schools of the Il-de-France region:

• Registration dates for doctoral schools (ED) and universities in the Ile-de-France region vary from one ED and university to another (possible registration dates between September and December).

The PhD Program 2022-2023 opened on December 20, 2022 and closed on March 03, 2023.
