ShapeMed@Lyon - One Health Fellowship

SHAPE-Med@Lyon and the Collegium de Lyon are launching the One Health–SHAPE-Med@Lyon fellowship. Each year, the programme welcomes a researcher in residence for 5 or 10 months between September and June. The fellowship offers a supportive and transdisciplinary scientific environment.

The fellowship offers the opportunity to participate in a well-structured, transdisciplinary research and training programme within an academic environment.

SHAPE-Med@Lyon (Structuring one Health Approach for Personalized Medicine in Lyon) project won the France 2030 ‘ExcellencES’ Future Investment Programme 4. This structuring project leverages the full scientific potential of the Lyon–St-Étienne region to develop transformative research and training initiatives in health and well-being – encompassing human, animal, environmental, and social dimensions. It integrates the principles of 5P medicine with the One Health approach, positioning the individual as target and player in his or her environment. More information on SHAPE-Med Website.

Applicants must hold a position as a researcher or faculty member at an institution outside of France and have a hosting plan in a laboratory affiliated with one of SHAPE-Med@Lyon’s 13 institutional partners, for research projects focused on the One Health approach.
