Candidates are required to indicate five possible locations for their visiting in the application form, among those of the SIdE network list (see below). Please apply as early as possible to facilitate the selection procedure.
Successful candidates will be assigned to one of the available institutions, based on preferences and research opportunities. Details concerning the visiting period will also be discussed with the reference person at the assigned hosting institution.
At the end of the visiting period (and no later than March 5th 2017), in order to receive the payment of the Research Prize, the selected candidates will have to submit the following documents in PDF form: 1) the payment request form, signed by both the researcher and the reference person at the hosting institution, containing bank details of the researcher; 2) a brief report on the research activity completed during the visiting, and, in the case it was already available, the paper written during the visiting.
Submission is electronic at claudio.morana@unimib.it. Upon a regularity check, UNIMIB will then proceed with the payment of the prize to the researcher by means of bank transfer.
