Cross-Node Job Shadowing

We are excited to announce the Cross-Node Job Shadowing program! This is an opportunity for Node Staff to work with other Euro-BioImaging Node outside their country of residence to keep learning and to exchange ideas and best practices.

Whether you're interested in scientific and technical fields, facility operations, or data management and analysis, this program is for you!

Funded by the EU project EVOLVE, this initiative supports Node Staff in expanding their expertise and fostering collaboration.

How does it work?

To participate, both the visitor and the host must be active staff members at a Euro-BioImaging Node at different member states. While not a requirement, preference may be given to applicants who have not previously received support through EVOLVE Training opportunities. The program is open to all Euro-BioImaging Node Staff, including technicians, administrative employees, and Node managers.

Application Rounds

The program runs an annual call each Spring during the EVOLVE project (starting in 2024).

Selected applicants are entitled to reimbursement for visit expenses including travel, accommodation and meals upon invoice submission.
