Between 13 January 2020 and 1 March 2020, you can apply to carry out a two-year program of original research in an area of fusion science or technology relevant to the °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¸ßÊÖ Project. Fellows must take up their assignments before end December 2020.
Since 2008, thirty postdocs have carried out original programs of fusion-related research at the °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¸ßÊÖ Organization, mentored and supported by °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¸ßÊÖ scientists and engineers.
 
The positions are funded by the Principality of Monaco, which signed a Partnership Arrangement with the °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¸ßÊÖ Organization back in 2008 and renewed its sponsorship in 2018 for ten years.
 
The researchers are recruited at the rhythm of five every two years. Within °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¸ßÊÖ, research possibilities exist in many areas of fusion science and technology, including:
 
• control technology
• plasma-facing materials and components
• burning plasma physics
• heating and current drive physics and technology
• fusion plasma diagnostics
• superconducting magnet technology
• electrical engineering
• mechanical/structural analysis
• remote handling
• vacuum and plasma fuelling technology
•&²Ô²ú²õ±è;³¦°ù²â´Ç²µ±ð²Ô¾±³¦²õ
