The Nanosciences Foundation is fostering research in Grenoble (France) focused on Nanosciences at the frontiers of nanoelectronics. It is supporting a network of 32 laboratories gathering about 1000 scientists.
A call is open for four Chairs of Excellence, designed to attract talented researchers to develop a project in emerging fields of nanosciences in one of the laboratories.
The Chairs of Excellence are open to both junior and senior scientists, available for full time or part time position in Grenoble; the contract duration can vary from 9 months (which might be split over three years) to 3 years. The award package includes an internationally competitive salary, social security, travel expenses and research support for hiring a PhD student and a post-doc and additional fund for operating costs to reinforce the successful candidate’s research activities. The hosting period may start from January 2011.
