The General Assembly provides an open forum for members and researchers to hear from Insigneo’s Board of Directors, ask questions and network.
In addition, members have the opportunity to invite and host speakers as part of the Insigneo seminar programme.
Specific funding calls
Opportunities for members and associate members to apply for internal research funding (eg CASE studentships and bridging funds for PhD students/post-docs).
