EFL mobility grants (Paris, France) 8th call for applications

Context of the call:
The aim of the Laboratoire d’excellence “Empirical Foundations of Linguistics: data, methods, models” (Labex EFL) is to promote innovative and interdisciplinary research within Linguistics and its related fields. Specific interest is given to empirical foundations (corpus analysis and experimental methods) of linguistic research. 

For the 8th time, the Labex EFL offers mobility grants for a period of 3 months each to PhD students in linguistics and related fields. 

The Labex EFL (http://www.labex-efl.com) is a fourteen-year project, funded by the French government (ANR-10-LABX-0083). It gathers 11 research teams (CRLAO, HTL, INCC, Lacito, Lattice, LIPN, Llacan, LLF, LPP, CeRMI, Sedyl) from 4 universities (Université Sorbonne Nouvelle, Université de Paris, Université Sorbonne Paris Nord et Institut National des Langues et Civilisations Orientales INALCO), in a partnership with the French National Center for Scientific Research (CNRS) and the French Research and Development Institute (IRD). It contributes to the IdEx Université de Paris (ANR-18-IDEX-0001).

Grant description:
Candidates must be PhD students from a University outside France, working in different fields of linguistics, including but not limited to empirical linguistics, typology, field linguistics, computational linguistics, psycholinguistics. 

The selected candidates will receive a stipend of 3,500 euros + transport costs.

The mobility will have to take place before end of June 2022.

During their fellowship, they will be hosted by one of the research units of Labex EFL and will attend research seminars at one of the partner universities. A certificate of attendance and validation of these seminars will be provided at the end of the semester.

Deadline and selection process:
Deadline for applications: January 24th, 2021 (midnight – Paris time)
