M+VISION COFUND

M+VISION is a program created by the Community of Madrid, through madri+d Foundation for Knowledge, in collaboration with the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). The program is aimed at strengthening the career development of researchers and specialists in the field of biomedical imaging through an individual aid scheme to carry out translational research projects in host organizations (such as universities, research centers, hospitals or companies). M+VISION has published three calls for the selection of up to 30 researchers and offers grants of a maximum duration of three years, consisting of one year scholarship and two years contract, as well as contributions for research and travel expenses. In the first year, researchers receive funding from the Community of Madrid and the scholarship takes place in a primarily academic environment, while in the second and third year they are hired directly by host organizations, carrying out more market-oriented research. There are two types of aid depending on the type of mobility they contemplate:

• Incoming modality: the three years of aid are spent in Spain.
• Outgoing modality: the first two years of aid are spent in the United States and the third year in Spain.

Funding total maximum: 2,680,728 €

Duration: 72 months (June 2012-June 2018)
