Road map for Flavor Research Programme 2017-2018

The programme is open to students in the academic year 201718 across all universities in Europe. The programme and its unique awards addresses students about to embark on a PhD research as well as those who have already chosen flavor research as their subject. This 8th edition is also organised by Giract and co-ordinated by Prof. Andy Taylor from the University of Nottingham, UK.

The following documents are attached:

  • poster announcing the 8th edition of this award programme for the academic year 2017-18. Kindly post it in a prominent position on your intranet.
  • road-map document that provides all the details about this programme.

Students who are interested in pursuing their studies at a PhD level often examine the websites of the various universities, professional associations and the presence of the link to Giract’s programme http://www.giract.com/flavor-research-programme.php may provide an additional reason for the student to opt for studies in flavors. We would thus be grateful if you could arrange to have this link on the relevant page of the association website.

We will be delighted to know your interest and possibility for supporting the programme. Please do not hesitate to contact either us in Giract (info@giract.com) or Andy (andy.taylor@nottingham.ac.uk) should you have any queries or comments.

We sincerely hope that this initiative contributes to your own significant efforts to promote PhD research studies in flavor science and we, as well as the sponsoring companies, are eager to receive your feedback.

Best Regards,
