PhD Program International DIM C-BRAINS

This call for applications for the PHD Program International closed on March 03, 2023.

In partnership with the FNP, the Institut du Cerveau and the CEA, this first call for projects for the 2022-2023 International PHD Program of the DIM C-BRAINS resulted in the submission of 72 subjects, all of high quality.

One of the major objectives of the DIM C-BRAINS is to contribute to the training of a new generation of researchers in neuroscience and cognition, by reinforcing 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 DIM C-BRAINS 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 meeting from May 22 to 24, 2023.
