The network of higher education and research establishments in Champagne-Ardenne supports the first edition of the Booster Research Award to promote research excellence in Champagne.

Organised with the support of the Grand Est Region, this award aims to support junior researchers from the network of establishments whose remarkable career in terms of training, professional and/or thematic experience of research destines them for an excellent senior career.

Open to researchers who defended their thesis in 2010 or after, the Booster research award of €5,000 seeks to reward the career of four award winners in each applied scientific centre: Health, Agrosciences Environment Biotechnologies and Bioeconomics (AEBB), Digital and Engineering Sciences (SNI) and Human and Social Sciences (SHS).

To participate, the application file must be submitted before Friday 1 July 2020 at 1 p.m.

The applicants selected at the end of the examination of the application files must audition before an independent panel made up of experts. Subsequently, award winners will be presented at an official ceremony in September (date TBC) with an assistance award to help finance their research.
