Silmo Academy Supports for a Research Project in the Optical and Vision Science Field

SILMO Academy has set itself the goal of supporting professionals working in ophthalmic optics in their quest for excellence by proposing workshops and a scientific symposium where they can enhance their knowledge and share ideas with experts from every field.

Since 2016, SILMO Academy has chosen to support a research project in the optical and vision science field. Every year it is offering a €10,000 grant for a project submitted by an individual researcher or research team, with the winning project selected by the scientific committee.

Eligibility Criteria:

– You must be leading a research project specifically in the field of optics and vision science.

– Only French and English presentation should be accepted.

Applicants must submit their resume, full presentation of their project, methodology, resources already available to them (sponsor, internship supervisor, grants secured, etc.), and resources still required in order to successfully complete their project before July 2, 2019.

Project applications will be accepted until July 2, 2019. The selection of the three best projects will be made by the Scientific Committee. In September, an oral presentation of the selected projects may be required. During Silmo Paris, the winning project will be announced and presented during the SILMO Academy symposium.

Please send projects to: SILMO Academy: 185, rue de Bercy – 75012 Paris – France or by email to: silmoacademy@silmo.fr .
