Are you a Postdoc in Artificial Intelligence? Then you might consider applying to the Postdoctoral Networking Tour in Artificial Intelligence (Postdoc-NeT-AI).
The purpose of the Postdoc-NeT-AI, funded by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF), is to connect international early-career researchers with the research community in artificial intelligence in Germany. For one week, selected postdoctoral researchers from all over the world will have the chance to connect with leading researchers and institutions in their fields.
The first call is out, and applications are possible until 16 August 2020. Comprehensive information is available here.
The program provides:
- coverage of all program-related costs in Germany (accommodation, domestic travel, most meals)
- a lump sum travel allowance (based on country of origin) if such costs are not covered by a third party
- the opportunity to combine the tour participation with additional networking activities in Germany – and guidance in identifying relevant contacts
The dates of the tour are 22 – 28 November 2020. We are aware that – due to the Covid-19 pandemic – there is no guarantee that international travel will be possible in November. However, as two tours per year will be offered in the coming four years selected candidates are invited to postpone their participation to a later tour, should it not be possible this year. Hence, applying is well worth the effort.
