Call for projects

ILCB offers support for its members’ research projects through ongoing calls for projects. We support diverse projects or actions

  • “At risk” projects
  • projects providing structure for the ILCB, with the goal of bringing together its various disciplines and laboratories
  • projects that foreshadow : in preparation for responses to national or international proposals
  • setting up international collaboration
  • setting up training

Interdisciplinary projects and projects including partners from at least two Labex’s laboratories will be given priority. This is meant as start-up support (complementing already-acquired support). The start-up budget is 10,000 €, but you can ask for much less or a bit more if your request is fully justified. There are two types of requests :

      • consumable budget : equipment, personnel (hourly pay), operations, transfers
      • access to the experimental platforms (during days of use)

To submit projects: please download the files (see link below):

Selection criteria :

    1. Scientific quality of the project
