Call for Staff Exchange now open
A reminder that the first call for our Staff exchange programme between ELIXIR Nodes is now open. The purpose of this programme is to support the exchange of staff between ELIXIR Nodes for short periods of time. This will help to strengthen the links between ELIXIR Nodes, facilitate capacity building across the infrastructure, and support the interoperability and sustainability of ELIXIR services and data resources. The ELIXIR Hub has allocated 60,000 Euro to this first Staff exchange programme in 2017, with the intention of supporting proposals of up to 15,000 Euro. See here for the call text and instruction to apply.
