In early 2017, the GSLS selected five research projects out of the 22 proposals submitted. The five successful postdoctoral researchers received a funding of 12.500 Euro for one year to gather data leading to their own grant proposal. Now that they all have completed their projects, they will present their research.

The introduction to the PostDoc Plus Funding serves as an opener for the event. In this part we will explain the details of the program and provide general tips for the application to interested PostDocs.
