Opportunities for Thai researchers to visit an ERC team

The European Research Council (ERC) and the Thai Programme Management Unit for Human Resources & Institutional Development, Research and Innovation (PMU-B) of the National Higher Education, Science, Research & Innovation Policy Council signed in September 2022 an agreement to foster mobility and cooperation.

This initiative gives the possibility to top researchers supported by PMU-B to temporarily join ERC research teams based in Europe, facilitating cooperation in similar areas of research or on topics of mutual interest. This arrangement is part of the ERC’s global outreach strategy that aims to make Europe a hub for research talent.

This webinar aims to inform about this new agreement, explain to PMU-B-funded researchers the procedures for applying, as well as to show testimonials of researchers who took part in the same type of this ERC-led initiative.
