Applications for training fellowships in 2008-2009 are invited from junior scientists from low- or medium-resource countries wishing to complete their training in those aspects of cancer research related to the Agency's mission: to coordinate and conduct both epidemiological and

The fellowship is for a period of one year, with the possibility of an extension for a second year subject to satisfactory appraisal. Candidates should have spent less than five years abroad (including doctoral studies) and have finished their doctoral degree within five years of the closing date for application or be in the final phase of completing their doctoral degree (M.D. or Ph.D.). They must provide evidence of their ability to return to their home country and keep working in cancer research. The working languages at IARC are English and French. Candidates must be proficient in English at a level sufficient for scientific communication. Candidates already working as
a postdoctoral fellow at the Agency at the time of application or who have had any contractual relationship with IARC during the 6 months preceding the application deadline or who have already spent more than one year at IARC cannot be considered. Candidates should contact the
host Group of their choice at IARC before application in order to interact closely to establish a proposed programme of mutual interest. Details regarding the IARC's research programmes are available from the Agency's web site: http://www.iarc.fr
Fellowships must be taken up by 31 December 2008. The annual stipend will be approximately 25 000 Euros. The cost of travel for the Fellow, and in certain circumstances for dependants, will be met, a dependant's allowance paid, and health insurance covered.
