Call for Application: Human Resource Development Program in Biotechnology 2011
March 25, 2011| |
The National Center for Genetic Engineering and Biotechnology (BIOTEC) invites research scientists from selected developing countries in East Asia, Southeast Asia and the Pacific to participate in the Human Resource Development Program in Biotechnology for 2011. The Program aims to build up R&D capability for developing countries as well as fostering research network among countries in this region. The Program places importance on improving research skill, thus it is designed to be an on-the-job and research-based training in BIOTEC's laboratories. Two types of training will be offered: fundamental courses (3 months) and advanced courses (6 months). The training course consists of classroom session, designing and conducting a mini research project and site visit to factories or project sites. A total of 12 scholarships will be provided.
Details of the grant and application form is now posted on the website http://www.biotec.or.th/biotechnology-en/en/Newsdetail.asp?id=6458
