News archive - Training for life-science researchers

The Brussels Office of the Helmholtz Association is coordinator of the EU project ReMaT, which develops a programme of research management training for PhD students and early-career researchers in the field of life sciences. This project organises Research Management Training workshops and provides stipends for travel and accommodation the target group from Western Balkan Countries. The dates are April 14-15, 2008 in Budapest, Hungary and on June 9-10, 2008 in Stockholm, Sweden.

The project aims to add value to existing bioscience doctoral training programmes across the European Higher Education Area.

The ReMaT project is based on a study of doctoral training programmes from across Europe and focus groups with PhD students, to identify the strengths and weakness of existing training programmes. On the basis of this research the intensive two-day ReMaT workshop has been developed to strengthen existing training programmes, focusing on research and commercially based management skills training.

The workshops will deal with management of inter-disciplinary projects, acquiring research grants in Europe, exploiting research & technology, etc.
