European centre for biodiversity and conservation research

Ziel

The importance of biodiversity conservation is recognised by the EU and its member states, and enshrined in law and treaty. Delivering on these commitments will require a European workforce with the technical expertise, practical conservation experience an d scientific understanding to apply appropriate techniques to complex practical problems. The Centre for Biodiversity and Conservation at the University of Leeds is an established Centre of Excellence in teaching and research, with an interdisciplinary structure encompassing a wide range of relevant fields of research. This broad base of established scientists makes the CBC a world-class training facility for work on the processes maintaining natural diversity, the tools for measuring and mapping it, and the techniques for preserving it in a changing environment.

Our proposed EST programme will extend an existing FP5 Marie Curie Training Site. We will provide three distinct forms of Fellowships under the new agreement: short-term visiting fellowships for specific research training, full-year Masters fellowships for broader training in biodiversity and conservation research, and three-year PhD fellowships for professional-level research training. All three involve a mixture of structured training, research and complementary skills instruction, and research experience, and provide opportunities for direct collaboration with biodiversity conservation professionals.

The University of Leeds boasts excellent libraries, and state-of-the-art laboratory, field and computational facilities for biodiversity and conservation training and research. The CBC has a strong record of training early stage researchers, and our graduates have fared well in their subsequent careers, with 2/3 of MRes students continuing to PhDs and 60% of PhDs continuing on to postdoctoral or academic posts.
