In the frame of ARISE (Career Accelerator for Research Infrastructure Scientists) programme, EMBL is looking for experienced professionals with a background in science, technology, engineering, or mathematics (STEM) eager to develop novel technologies for life sciences and get trained to operate life science research infrastructures of tomorrow.
Successful applicants will become ARISE Fellows and will receive a three-year Fellowship to:
- work on method or technology development of their choice in various areas (from bioinformatics or engineering, see the full list below), towards service provision to external life science researchers and
- get trained in operation and management of research infrastructures and service provision.
ARISE is the first Fellowship programme of its kind in Europe and is designed to train Fellows to become highly skilled leaders or senior staff at research infrastructures or other service providing facilities.
In addition, ARISE Fellows will gain broad understanding of life sciences, data management and FAIR data policies. The programme will also provide broad professional networking opportunities, raising awareness about technology and science developments, and the needs of the user community.
Each ARISE Fellow will be hosted by an EMBL group or team of their choice at one of EMBL's six sites (Barcelona, Grenoble, Hamburg, Heidelberg, Hinxton, or Rome) and will do secondments at partner organisations from industry or academia. EMBL group and team leaders participating in ARISE, all have a track record in developing new methods and technologies, providing these as a service to external researchers, and applying them to answer novel scientific questions.
Applications close on 31 January 2021 (included).
