Short Term Clinical Fellowships

WHAT THEY ARE

The Short Term Clinical Fellowships are designed to enable young people to support clinical research in the field of Nephrology and, in particular, to favor the growth of young clinical investigators and to facilitate the cooperation among renal centres in the ERA-EDTA geographical area and the rest of the world.

WHERE THEY ARE PERFORMED

The Short Term Clinical Fellowships’ applications must involve a receiving institution located in the ERA-EDTA geographical area (Europe, countries bordering Europe and the Mediterranean Sea) and should preferably involve movement between two countries (preferred option). In case there is no movement between two countries, there must at least be movement between two cities.

The applicant has the right to choose any Centre located within the ERA-EDTA geographical area where to do his/her fellowship, however, a parameter for the selection process will concern the feasibility of the proposed fellowship in the chosen Centre.

In order to simplify the contacts between the applicants and the centres, the ERA-EDTA recommends the use of Expertscape. Expertscape can provide detailed information about the geographical location of experts — their countries, cities, and institutions. With this landscape of experts, fellows can choose which ones to contact to possibly start his/her fellowship.

Referees of the Fellowship Programme applicants and the Receiving Institute supervisors are not expected to be ERA-EDTA Members (categories A and B) if they are not Nephrologists; if instead they are Nephrologists, being an ERA-EDTA Member (categories A and B), though not mandatory, will be a factor in favor of the applicant in the course of the evaluation of his/her application.

WHAT IT IS OFFERED

The duration of the Clinical Short Term Fellowships is from a minimum of 2 months (60 days) to a maximum of 6 months (180 days)

The fellowship subsistence rates are based on the calculations done on the basis of the EMBO -European Molecular Biology Organization-rates: the flat fee figures (available here) are for a period of 12 months and should cover travel and living expense and any work-related taxes and insurances. For a shorter/longer period the amount must be calculated accordingly.

WHO CAN APPLY

Applications are only considered from ERA-EDTA Members (A and B) whose age will not be over 40 at the time of the application submission.

These fellowships are not restricted to candidates with significant clinical experience, although candidates with little experience have a lower priority.

On completion of the fellowship, the applicants should return back home and thus must have the possibility to return to their Home Institution or to an “equivalent institution”. This has to be indicated in writing by the applicant’s Home Institution or by the equivalent institution. This letter must be submitted with the application form.

Criteria used for the selection.

1. Knowledge transfer from host to home institute and need of this knowledge in the Home Institute

2. Possibility of continuation/implementation of the programme/project c/o the Home Institute

3. Educational status / Age of the applicant

4. Membership status of supervisors and referees

HOW TO APPLY

The call was open from March 5, 2020 and will close on April 30, 2020 (deadline for applications).

It is no longer possible to submit applications.

The application form will be again available via My ERA-EDTA when a new call will be launched.

Additional information on the application and the selection:

Referees of the Fellowship Programme applicants and the Receiving Institute supervisors are not expected to be ERA-EDTA Members (categories A and B) if they are not Nephrologists; if instead they are Nephrologists, being an ERA-EDTA Member (categories A and B), though not mandatory, will be a factor in favor of the applicant in the course of the evaluation of his/her application.
