Informazioni sulla borsa
Ogni anno viene indetto un Bando per Borse di Studio di una durata variabile, in funzione del progetto, da 6 a 24 mesi. In questo periodo il vincitore si unirà ad uno dei team di ricerca già al lavoro presso l’Istituto. La borsa prevede un importo da $15.000 a $26.000 all’anno, in funzione del livello professionale del candidato.
I giovani ricercatori Italiani, laureati in discipline medico-scientifiche, hanno possibilità di effettuare un programma di studio e perfezionamento della ricerca o un post-dottorato. La prima edizione è stata nel 2002. Il dettaglio delle singole edizioni è riportato nelle pagine seguenti
