// International Invited Chair program 2024

Hi! PARIS, as part of its commitment to promoting international scientific exchanges, is launching the “Hi! PARIS International Visiting Chairs” program. This program is designed to encourage scientists affiliated with international institutions to spend extended periods of time within Hi! PARIS affiliated research teams in France. The duration can range from several weeks to a year. The goal is to facilitate high-quality international collaborations, while at the same time giving greater visibility to our research institutions.

To make this program accessible to a broader spectrum of candidates, three categories of Chairs are proposed:

  1. International Visiting Chairs “Starting Career” (5 to 10 years of post-PhD experience)
  2. International Visiting Chairs “Advanced Career” (10 years plus of post-PhD experience)
  3. International visiting fellowships

 

Be ready to submit anytime to our usual Hi! PARIS projects call!!
