COLLEGE STATION, TX, January 5, 2023 – The International Agricultural Education Fellowship Program (IAEFP) is founded in partnership with AgriCorps, and hosted at the Norman Borlaug Institute for International Agriculture. IAEFP is funded by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) Foreign Agriculture Service (FAS).

IAEFP trains and supports fellows to work with teachers and community members in developing countries to implement school-based agricultural education (SBAE) and establish youth leadership clubs. Based on a community needs assessments, fellows work to implement relevant and sustainable agricultural projects at each school. The goal of this program is to give youth the opportunity to experiment with agriculture and try new methods in a low-risk environment. Students can then disseminate what they learn in schools to the adults in their communities.

Le programme de bourses HFSP soutient les propositions de recherche de pointe potentiellement transformatrice dans les sciences de la vie. Les candidatures pour des projets à haut risque sont particulièrement encouragées. Les projets doivent être de nature interdisciplinaire et remettre en question les paradigmes existants en utilisant de nouvelles approches et techniques. Scientifiquement, ils doivent répondre à un problème important ou à un obstacle au progrès dans le domaine.

Les bourses postdoctorales du HFSP encouragent les scientifiques en début de carrière à élargir leurs compétences en recherche en s'orientant vers de nouveaux domaines d'études tout en travaillant dans un nouveau pays.

Deux bourses différentes sont disponibles:

Les bourses de longue durée (LTF) sont destinées aux candidats titulaires d'un doctorat sur un sujet biologique qui souhaitent se lancer dans un projet nouveau et pionnier axé sur les sciences de la vie.

Les bourses interdisciplinaires (CDF) sont destinées aux candidats titulaires d'un doctorat dans une discipline non biologique (par exemple, physique, chimie, mathématiques, ingénierie ou informatique) et qui n'ont jamais travaillé dans les sciences de la vie auparavant.

Il n'y a qu'un seul concours par an pour les bourses HFSP. Les candidatures aux bourses de longue durée et interdisciplinaires HFSP 2025 (qui débuteront en 2025) suivront un processus de soumission en deux étapes via la plateforme de soumission en ligne ProposalCentral . Tout d'abord, les candidats seront invités à soumettre une lettre d'intention à partir de laquelle le comité d'examen sélectionnera les meilleures propositions. Dans un deuxième temps, les candidats retenus seront invités à soumettre une proposition complète.

Les directives de candidature pour le prochain cycle seront disponibles début 2024. Le portail de candidature HFSP dans ProposalCentral ouvrira en mars 2024 pour les lettres d'intention.

Pour toute question concernant l'inscription dans ProposalCentral, veuillez utiliser le contact suivant : https://proposalcentral.com/inforequest.asp

E-mail : Cliquez ici pour afficher l'adresse e-mail

Téléphone : +1 703 964 5840

Délais :

• Soumission d'une lettre d'intention avant 13 heures (heure de l'Est des États-Unis) avant le 14 mai 2024
• Le candidat à la bourse sera informé entre mi-août et fin août si sa lettre d'intention a été sélectionnée ou non pour soumettre une proposition complète.
• Soumission des propositions complètes pour les candidats invités avant 13 heures (heure de l'Est des États-Unis) avant le 26 septembre 2024 via ProposalCentral.

Veuillez vous référer aux directives de candidature pour obtenir des informations complètes sur l'éligibilité.

Critères d’éligibilité importants :

1) Nationalité

Un candidat qui n'est pas ressortissant d'un des membres du HFSP (voir liste ci-dessous) peut postuler pour travailler uniquement dans un établissement de recherche d'un des pays membres. Un candidat ressortissant de l’un des pays membres peut postuler pour travailler dans un établissement de recherche de n’importe quel pays.

Pays membres du HFSP : Australie, Autriche, Belgique, Bulgarie, Canada, Croatie, Chypre (partie UE uniquement), République tchèque, Danemark, Estonie, Finlande, France, Allemagne, Grèce, Hongrie, Inde, République d'Irlande, Israël, Italie, Afrique du Sud, Espagne, États-Unis, Japon, République de Corée, Lettonie, Lituanie, Luxembourg, Malte, Pays-Bas, Nouvelle-Zélande, Norvège, Pologne, Portugal, Roumanie, Singapour, Slovaquie, Slovénie, Suède, Suisse et Royaume-Uni d'Amérique .

Les candidats doivent proposer de travailler dans un pays différent de celui où ils ont effectué leur précédent doctorat ou leurs premières études postdoctorales. Pour les institutions qui ne sont pas classées comme nationales, c'est-à-dire les institutions internationales ou extraterritoriales telles que l'EMBL, l'ICPT ou l'ICGEB, le pays dans lequel le laboratoire est situé sera considéré comme le pays d'accueil.

2) Doctorat

Un doctorat de recherche (PhD) ou un diplôme de niveau doctorat comparable à un doctorat avec une expérience équivalente en recherche fondamentale (par exemple un doctorat en médecine ou en médecine basé sur la recherche) doit être conféré au début de la bourse. Cela n’est pas requis au moment de la soumission. Par « diplôme conféré », nous entendons que vous avez obtenu votre diplôme pour le diplôme. La « date d'attribution » est la date figurant sur le document officiel du doctorat. Veuillez vous référer aux directives de candidature pour plus d'informations au cas où vous n'auriez pas encore obtenu le doctorat.

3) Publications de recherche

Les candidats doivent avoir au moins une publication d'auteur principal avant la date limite de soumission de la lettre d'intention qui peut être un manuscrit (1) publié dans un référentiel de préimpressions OA reconnu, ou (2) accepté pour publication, (3) sous presse ou (4 ) déjà publié dans une revue à comité de lecture.

La soumission d'une demande de bourse au stade de la proposition complète n'est cependant possible qu'avec un article de recherche publié conformément aux points (2) à (4) ci-dessus. Le HFSP n'accepte que les publications de recherche originales complètes en anglais qui ont été évaluées par des pairs et pour lesquelles le candidat doit être soit l'auteur unique, soit le premier auteur, soit le premier auteur conjoint. Dans un article conjoint avec premier auteur, le candidat n'a pas besoin d'être répertorié en première position, mais la contribution égale des auteurs doit être clairement indiquée dans tous les cas.

Dans certains cas, la pratique standard de publication rend impossible la paternité première (par exemple, liste alphabétique des auteurs) ; ces circonstances doivent être expliquées dans la demande.

The HFSP fellowship program supports proposals for frontier, potentially transformative research in the life sciences. Applications for high-risk projects are particularly encouraged. The projects should be interdisciplinary in nature and should challenge existing paradigms by using novel approaches and techniques. Scientifically, they should address an important problem or a barrier to progress in the field.

HFSP postdoctoral fellowships encourage early career scientists to broaden their research skills by moving into new areas of study while working in a new country.

Two different fellowships are available:

Long-Term Fellowships (LTF) are for applicants with a PhD on a biological topic who want to embark on a novel and frontier project focussing on the life sciences.

Cross-Disciplinary Fellowships (CDF) are for applicants who hold a doctoral degree from a non-biological discipline (e.g. physics, chemistry, mathematics, engineering or computer sciences) and who have not worked in the life sciences before.

There is only one competition per year for HFSP Fellowships. Applications for the 2025 HFSP Long-Term and Cross-Disciplinary Fellowships (to start in 2025) will follow a two-step submission process via the online submission platform ProposalCentral. Firstly, applicants will be asked to submit a Letter of Intent from which the review committee will select the best proposals. In a second step, successful applicants will be invited to submit a Full Proposal. The link to the registration portal of each program will be available in the corresponding application guidelines. The application guidelines for the current cycle are available for reference:           - Long-Term Fellowships can be downloaded here,           - Cross-Disciplinary Fellowships can be downloaded here.

The application guidelines for the next cycle will be available early 2024. The HFSP application portal in ProposalCentral will open in March 2024 for Letters of Intent.
