Support for participation in international scientific events

Contenu
The Plateforme nationale pour la recherche sur la fin de vie, with the support of the Caisse nationale de solidarité pour l'autonomie (CNSA), wishes to encourage the participation of young researchers in international scientific events.

Objectives

The aim is to enable young researchers to attend a symposium, congress or study day abroad in order to present a research paper (oral intervention or poster) or simply to develop their network and/or to enquire about international research work on end-of-life and palliative care.

Attention : as of July 1, 2024, the Platform's financial envelope having been exhausted, only requests falling within the scope of activities supported by the CNSA will be considered.
In other words, the themes of the scientific event and the work presented must contribute to enriching the field of knowledge on autonomy (i.e. concerning disabled people at all ages of life and elderly people losing their autonomy, their relatives and professionals) and fall within the scope of the human and social sciences and/or public health.
