DTU recently welcomed 22 highly talented researchers who have been granted a H.C. Ørsted COFUND fellowship. The 22 researchers come from all over the world and will spend the next years at the University advancing their scientific career.
By Stine Work Brodersen and Vibeke Hempler
The original H.C. Ørsted postdoc programme was launched in 2004 and given to young, talented researchers from abroad. Co-funding by the European Union’s Marie Skłodowska-Curie actions has enabled DTU to uphold both the number and the duration of granted fellowships in 2016.
No fewer than 188 applicants applied. After a thorough review process, where the applications were subjected to external international peer review based on a set of predefined criteria, DTU has selected 22 promising researchers who have shown great potential in their respective field of research. The fellows represent 11 different nationalities, and will carry out research within an extensive range of academic fields.
