ANR - CHAIRS OF EXCELLENCE PROGRAMME 2011
The hosting of high-level foreign researchers and professors in French research laboratories plays a crucial role in enhancing the attractiveness of France in the international context. The top candidates make their choices according to key factors such as living and working conditions as well as the ready availability of project management resources.
Besides the favorable image resulting from the temporary or permanent hosting of the best international scientists, we can reinforce our potential for innovative research and restructuring in new research directions while taking advantage of the contribution of highly-skilled and experienced experts.
The Chairs of Excellence Programme aims to attract the best researchers and professors, either French or foreign, in France by providing with the support of the host organisations, substantial means to set up a team and undertake an ambitious research project with a visible impact.
The programme operates through a call for proposals open to all research disciplines. The 2011 edition of the programme proposes three types of chairs.
