PEARL Programme 2017 for International Researchers, Luxembourgh

Publish Date: Jul 18, 2017

Deadline: Oct 16, 2017

ATTRACTING LEADING RESEARCHERS FROM ABROAD TO LUXEMBOURG

With the PEARL programme, the FNR offers Luxembourg research institutions attractive funding to enable them to draw established and internationally recognised researchers from abroad to Luxembourg.

Through the recruitment of outstanding scientists in strategically important areas, the FNR aims to accelerate the development and strengthening of Luxembourg’s national research priorities.

 

DURATION & FUNDING SPECIFICS

PEARL projects have a lifespan of five years with a financial contribution of between 3-4 MEUR by the FNR. The financial contribution can be used flexibly to implement the research programme at the host institution.

In the 2017 Call, the FNR expects to be able to fund up to 3 PEARL positions.

APPLICATION INFORMATION

Proposals must be submitted jointly by the candidate and the host institution, but PEARL also allows for the submission of a proposal where the candidate is still to be recruited. This is reserved for particularly strategic positions within a host institution (e.g. Head of Department) only.

Funding decisions will be communicated in June / July 2018.
