PhD Excellence Awards

Each year, in spring, the CTRN offers doctoral excellence scholarships. 

Regular members of the CTRN are then invited to submit the application for one of their doctoral students. Note that for a given competition, a regular member of the CTRN can only apply for one of his students.

Recipients are committed to present their research as part of the CTRN's annual Neuroscience Research Day, which provides great visibility to their work as well as a rewarding experience.
