The work also includes relating these indicators to the remaining measures of the study, documenting the procedures adopted, and collaborating in the preparation of reports and scientific publications arising from the project.
Duration: The research fellowship(s) will have the duration of 6 months. It’s expected to begin in November 2026, and may be eventually renewed until the end of the project.
