CEA Laboratories will host Winning Research from the Grenoble Session

CEA has announced that it will host the most promising research project(s) to emerge from the upcoming GSAS Session on Graphene Fundamentals and Applications, to be held in Grenoble June 20-27, 2011. The team(s) with the winning research plan(s) will be hired as postdocs at CEA laboratories on the  the Giant Innovation Campus in Grenoble, France.

GIANT

Designed to respond to major societal challenges such as renewable energies and environmental problems, bioscience and human health, and communication technologies, the GIANT campus incorporates three technological centers of excellence in applied research: MINATEC in micro and nanotechnology, GreEn in energy and Nanobio in health and biotech. 

R&D facilities on the GIANT campus include four large CEA research institutes: LETI (micro and nanotechnologies) LITEN (new energy technologies) INAC (nanosciences and cryogenics) and iRTSV (integrated functions of proteins); CNRS-Grenoble (National center for scientifique research); the European Molecular Biology Laboratory; the European Synchrotron Radiation Facility; the Grenoble Institute of Technology; and many others.

 

Feedback from Scholars

What I appreciated most:
The opportunity to share ideas with my peers and with friendly mentors was amazing. The whole process developing a proposal with youth researchers was enjoyable.

Feedback from Fellows

What I appreciated most:
To me, the unique aspect of this global school [is that] it really prepares students to interact globally, to come up with new innovative ideas and to be really cooperative in the development of these ideas"
