They are working to develop interconnections at the level of the individual, should it be researchers or PhD students.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EIn that context, the Consulates General of France in Houston and in Atlanta are organizing a 2-days meeting between PhD students enrolled in a US university and in a French university. The seminar whose focus will be on chemical analysis at the nanoscale will take place in Toulouse, France, mid-March 2014. This meeting will provide the opportunity to US and French PhD students to share scientific results in a very informal setting. Besides, four (4) lectures of well-known French researchers in the field will be also proposed to the PhD students. Moreover, the seminar will be followed by the visit of 3 state-of-the-art French characterization centers: the Cemes, the N\u00e9el Institute and the Minatec innovation campus.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EFurthermore, thanks to the generous support of the OST, eight (8) scholarships to attend this meeting will be awarded to PhD students enrolled in a US university. The scholarships will be awarded on the basis of a call to candidacy. The laureates will be granted a one-week scientific trip to France.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EMore details regarding this call for proposals as well as the application form can be found on the OST website:\u0026nbsp;\u003Ca href=\u0022http:\/\/www.france-science.org\/US-French-Post-Graduate-Seminar-on.html\u0022 target=\u0022_blank\u0022\u003Ehttp:\/\/www.france-science.org\/US-French-Post-Graduate-Seminar-on.html\u003C\/a\u003E.\u003C\/p\u003E","summary":null,"format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":[{"value":"Seminar to be held in Toulouse, France, mid-March 2014"}],"field_summary":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003EThis meeting will provide the opportunity to US and French PhD students to share scientific results in a very informal setting.
