ExposUM FELLOWSHIPS 2024
ExposUM is an initiative of the University of Montpellier and its partners aiming to establish an off-site and decompartmentalized reference institute for the study, training and science-society interface of the environmental determinants of human health. Laureate of the ExcellenceS call (PIA4) and supported by the Occitanie Region, ExposUM has a budget of 46.4M€ over the 2022-2030 period.
SCIENTIFIC SCOPE
The exposome is the set of environmental and social factors the effects of which, combined with the intrinsic characteristics of individuals, underlie the onset, the evolution, and the severity of infectious or non-communicable human diseases. In this sense, it is the environmental counterpart of the genome, with which it interacts throughout the life of individuals.
OBJECTIVES
The Research axis of the ExposUM Institute aims to accelerate the acquisition of fundamental knowledge in an interdisciplinary, coordinated and non-segmented manner on the fields of study of the exposome under the four pillars:
1.Strengthen the monitoring of environmental exposures,
2.refining the understanding of the ecology of hosts, pathogens, reservoirs, and vectors in a One Health approach,
3.Improve fundamental knowledge of biological mechanisms,
4.Study the consequences for human health.
Data science (in its broadest sense) constitutes a bridge linking all the pillars, both in terms of methodology, exploitation and highlighting of the results. Based on one or more of the pillars, research oriented towards the study and development of new exposure control strategies also falls within the scope of this axis, in coordination with the Interfaces axis.
To this end, the ExposUM Institute is proposing two ExposUM Fellowships for the start of the 2024 academic year. They are a complement to the regular research project call, and are a continuation of the MUSE I-SITE attractiveness programme, the terms of which they follow.
The ExposUM Fellowships programme supports the consolidation and development of local skills and the scientific potential of the site on the themes of the Institute.
CALENDAR
– Publication of the ExposUM Fellowships call: 18 January 2024
– Deadline for receipt of applications: 1 April 2024
– Evaluation and selection of applications: April 2024
– Announcement of results: May 2024

FINANCIAL SUPPORT
Financial support will be granted for two years and will renewable once for a further two years. The grant will cover, if necessary, the salary of the successful candidates and a research budget of €200k/year, including the salary related to the recruitment of at least one post-doctoral fellow (employer’s cost from €46k/year, adjusted according to experience and expertise) and additional project expenses (recruitment of an engineer or technician, operating costs and equipment), contributing to the implementation of an original research project on the exposome.
ELIGIBILITY
This calls aims at attracting experienced and recognised researchers and teacher-researchers who wish to join one of the research structures within the ExposUM Institute’s perimeter to develop ambitious and original research projects.
All PhD holders who are currently teaching or researching outside the site, whether on a non-permanent or permanent basis, are eligible to apply (the cost of the modulation of the teaching service may be included in the cost of the project).
Nationality and country of residence are not eligibility criteria.
The affiliation laboratory (research unit of the ExposUM consortium, with or without the University of Montpellier as co-supervisor) is left to the choice of the applicant, who must have identified it at the time of application, with the approval of the management of the laboratory concerned (see below).
The research project must fall within the field of the exposome, i.e. the study of human health determinants of environmental origin in the broadest sense.
APPLICATION FORMALITIES
Applications will be evaluated on the sole basis of a French or English written material, which must include:
These four elements must be merged in this order (no template is provided) in a PDF file named EUMF_NameSurname.pdf to be sent by email to [email protected] with [Fellowship Application] in the subject line before 1 April 2024 14:00 (UTC+2).
EVALUATION
Applications will be evaluated and selected by the Scientific and Strategic Orientation Council (SSOC) of the ExposUM Institute, on the basis of the quality and scientific potential of the applicant and the project, the relevance of the project to the themes of the Institute and the coherence of the project with the strategy of the consortium partners, with the aim of strengthening the attractiveness and international scientific influence of the Institute.
Applications with one or more of the following qualities will be valued, given equivalent scientific level:
