[Loewe, Christiane]

Empa<http://www.empa.ch/>, the Swiss Federal Laboratories for Materials Science and Technology, is launching a new fellowship programme. «Empa Postdocs» is a bottom-up trans-national mobility and re-integration programme. It allows experienced researchers from all over the world to sketch out a research project and work on it in one of Empa's 29 research laboratories<http://www.empa.ch/plugin/template/empa/4/*/---/l=2>. The application has to be made together with a senior scientist at Empa, who will act as the fellow's mentor. Empa's five Research Focus Areas<http://www.empa.ch/plugin/template/empa/978/*/---/l=2> and its three sites near Zurich, in St. Gallen and in Thun offer a large degree of freedom in research topics as well as in location to the fellows. After a rigorous selection process ensuring that the best candidates are selected, Empa Postdocs fellows are offered a two-year contract at Empa. Empa Postdocs offers a highly competitive salary, and research and education cost contribution package.
The Empa Postdocs programme is co-funded by the FP7: People Marie-Curie action COFUND. The next call for applications will be issued on June 1st, 2011; the application deadline is August 31st, 2011, and the estimated starting date for the fellowships is February 15th, 2012.
