COFUND-CERN Cofunding of the CERN Fellowship Programme

Coordinator: ORGANISATION EUROPEENNE POUR LA RECHERCHE NUCLEAIRE (CH)

For many years, CERN has operated a trans-national Fellowship programme, offering scientists and engineers challenging opportunities in particle physics research, and in related fields of physics and technology. The COFUND action offers CERN a timely opportunity to enhance the mobility element of this programme, which is open to nationals of all countries. This opportunity comes at a time when the startup of the Large Hadron Collider makes CERN one of the most exciting places to work for the global physics and technology community. Mobility will be enhanced through the opportunity to spend up…

About Seventh Framework Programme (2007–2013)

The Seventh Framework Programme (FP7) ran from 2007 to 2013 and was the EU's main research-funding instrument of that period. It mobilised roughly €50 billion across cooperation projects, ERC frontier grants, Marie Curie fellowships, capacity-building actions and Euratom research. FP7 closed to new calls in 2013 but its projects continued for years after under their original grant agreements.

0 EU contribution: €5.0M awarded to the consortium. The project runs over approximately 4 years from 2009-04-01 to 2013-03-31.
