The early-career period is one of the most stressful stages for a researcher. To help navigate these crucial years, the Global Plant Council established the ECRi.
ECRi Grant lists resources, provided by the Global Plant Council Members, to help plant science ECRs look for and find their next grant.
PEB can help you secure several types of scholarships available for students undertaking projects in the centre’s research programs. Availability of these different options depends on the project chosen and its supervision.
Scholarships are in recognition of excellence in students, and are designed to help you focus on your project without the need to find external paid work.
