德國(guó)博士后獎(jiǎng)學(xué)金申請(qǐng)

我寫(xiě)下關(guān)于德國(guó)高等教育是因?yàn)槌Ｓ腥?國(guó)內(nèi)的朋友，這里的德國(guó)學(xué)生)問(wèn)我關(guān)于美德區(qū)別，出于好奇的還是在認(rèn)真考慮去國(guó)外讀書(shū)的都有。我當(dāng)然只有個(gè)人經(jīng)歷，很不全，但既然想知道的朋友挺多，覺(jué)得值得寫(xiě)出來(lái)。歡迎各位討論補(bǔ)充。

      現(xiàn)在再說(shuō)一下我申請(qǐng)postdoc fellowship的經(jīng)歷。

      即使老板有錢，不用申請(qǐng)，還是申請(qǐng)一下好。第一，為你的簡(jiǎn)歷貼金。第二，獎(jiǎng)學(xué)金是免稅的，通常高于普通postdoc稅后收入。第三，申請(qǐng)不化錢。第四，有的獎(jiǎng)學(xué)金機(jī)構(gòu)會(huì)對(duì)你的申請(qǐng)報(bào)告作出評(píng)價(jià)，無(wú)論成功否，你都能更好了解自己研究項(xiàng)目的地位和自身能改進(jìn)處。

      我知道的不會(huì)德語(yǔ)的中國(guó)人能申請(qǐng)的博士后獎(jiǎng)學(xué)金：Humboldt，Marie Curie Incoming International Fellowship。若與生物方面有關(guān)還有：EMBO，Human Frontier Science Program, Schering。應(yīng)該還有更多，誰(shuí)知道的歡迎補(bǔ)充。另外博士生也應(yīng)該調(diào)查一下可申請(qǐng)的獎(jiǎng)學(xué)金，試一試總沒(méi)有壞處。

      寫(xiě)申請(qǐng)報(bào)告當(dāng)然是最重要的，要時(shí)刻想到評(píng)審人希望看到你提出的計(jì)劃可以真正實(shí)施而不是紙上談兵，所以不僅要有好的想法還要提供充足的preliminary data，最好是已發(fā)表的。具體怎么寫(xiě)我不羅嗦了，網(wǎng)上能查到很多。

      其次是老板牛不牛。再次是自己牛不牛(以前是為啥老板干的，發(fā)表了什么)。

      我同時(shí)申請(qǐng)了Humboldt，Marie Curie，HFSP，我自認(rèn)為機(jī)會(huì)50%，因?yàn)閷?xiě)申請(qǐng)時(shí)我還沒(méi)開(kāi)做，不知該項(xiàng)目的底細(xì)，老板無(wú)名(postdoc剛做出來(lái)的，小小的一個(gè)group leader)，但我發(fā)表論文較多(要感謝曾在UM被迫充當(dāng)廉價(jià)勞力，有3篇第一作者和3篇合作)。結(jié)果出乎意料3個(gè)全中，我當(dāng)然選個(gè)給錢最多的拉。

      其中Marie Curie(EU的錢)給了很詳細(xì)的評(píng)價(jià)，節(jié)選如下，希望對(duì)其他申請(qǐng)人有幫助：

      申請(qǐng)報(bào)告 
      Strong points: 
      -This is an exceptional clear project focused on getting new and important insights into a very important problem of cell physiology. 
      -The experimental design is excellent.

      Weak points: 
      -However, additional in vivo experimentats would improve the application and could certainly add to the biological significance of the project.

      我本人 
      The applicant has a broad research experience. The applicant has a large number of publications, however only few in very good journals. The applicant has proven very good independent thinking. There is a perfect match between the applicants profile and the project. There is a very good potential to acquire new knowledge.The topic of the proposed project is perfectly in line with the candidate''''s previous research endeavors and the candidate is expected to have the required experience in the field to successfully conduct the proposed research programme.

      我老板 
      However, having established the laboratory only recently, it may not be fully organized yet, and some organizational adjustments may occur during the training period of the fellow. Infrastructure of the host laboratory is perfectly adequate for the proposed project.

      可行性 
      Strong points: 
      -The outline of the project (management and workplan) is excellent. 
      -The applicant already started working in the host laboratory, and the practical arrangements for conducting the project are thus in place.

      Weak points: 
      -However, a detailed risk assessment is lacking.
