Call for Proposal on Joint Junior Scientist Group on Biotechnology
General Principle
The programme is based on the item “New measures” of the “Minutes of the 6th Meeting of the Chinese-German Steering Committee on Biotechnological Cooperation, Beijing, 21st May 2004”: “The SC welcomes the idea of building up several ‘Joint Junior Scientist Group’ (1 head, 1-2 Postdocs, 1-2 PhD-Students, 1-2 technicians, up to the needs of the project). Goal is short or long-term industrial application of biotechnological inventions. Criteria are an innovative scientific idea, the personality of the young scientist and a host institute. These groups should strongly connect German and Chinese laboratories. Duration could be 4-5 years. Each side has to take their own costs.”
Description
Joint Junior Scientist Group Programme consists of two parts: Chinese-German Joint Junior Scientist Group (C-G Group) and German-Chinese Joint Junior Scientist Group (G-C Group).
A C-G Group is an integrated system of one Chinese and one German subgroup and is headed by a Chinese scientist. Both subgroups collaborate on one research topic, on producing publications and, possibly, on carrying out network-building measures. There will be a mid-turn evaluation after 2 years. And the maximum term of project will be 5 years. The Chinese head will be responsible for decisions on details concerning the choice of the research topics, the length and the arrangement of the collaboration of both subgroups. The collaboration absolutely includes longer research stays of members of one subgroup in the laboratory of the other subgroup. All details of collaboration should be regulated within a joint agreement which includes the rules of Intellectual Property Rights.
Qualification
1. Support Organization
