Stages, Échanges & Bourses

GlycoNet offre une formation multidisciplinaire pour accélérer le développement des capacités nécessaires pour la recherche en glycomique. Cette formation comprend des bourses à des points clés de transition professionnels - étudiants d'été, étudiants diplômés, boursiers postdoctoraux, assistants / associés de recherche et techniciens. À ce jour, nous avons formé plus de 400 stagiaires dans le Réseau.

Opportunités de formation pour les stagiaires de GlycoNet

Programme de recherche et de suppléments de voyage

Le programme de suppléments de recherche et de voyage offre un soutien financier aux étudiants diplômés, aux boursiers postdoctoraux, aux techniciens et aux associés de recherche au sein de GlycoNet qui travaillent sur des projets multi-chercheurs. Ces fonds sont destinés à contribuer aux frais de séjour et de voyage des stagiaires pour un échange de recherche ou pour une conférence/atelier. Ce programme n'est plus disponible.

Bourses d'été pour étudiants de premier cycle (SAUS)

Le programme de bourses d’été offre aux étudiants du premier cycle l’opportunité de poursuivre des projets de recherche supervisés par des chercheurs du Réseau GlycoNet pendant l’été. En savoir plus>

Programme d’opportunité de formation avancée (ATOP)

Le PHQ aîné du réseau aura l'occasion de développer ses compétences en leadership, en rédaction de demandes de subvention et en gestion grâce au programme d'opportunités de formation avancée. Ce programme n'est plus disponible.

Stage Mitacs

GlycoNet et Mitacs travaillent ensemble pour offrir des opportunités de stage industriel aux étudiants diplômés et aux boursiers postdoctoraux du Réseau. En savoir plus>

Programme de formation sur les compétences techniques fondamentales

En partenariat avec BioTalent Canada, GlycoNet offre au PHQ le programme permettant d’acquérir des connaissances d'introduction de compétences techniques clés qui les aident à se démarquer de la foule lorsqu'ils entrent sur le marché du travail de la bioéconomie. En savoir plus>

I’m learning beyond research.

I learned to encourage my team and became more organized. Research is not only about successes, but also about all the failures that contribute to new discoveries. Being positive and being able to deal with unexpected results while maintaining the right attitude is important. The project I started with Eddie is still ongoing, but I am proud of what we have accomplished in just one year.

Getting connected through collaborations.

The research exchange program has allowed me to evolve as a researcher, providing me with the skills and knowledge to tackle specific questions by using computational methods. The collaboration has also yielded a publication in Nature Communications, paving the way for future fruitful collaborations.

Consolidating my knowledge.

The Summer Award helped me understand the interplay between chemistry and biology while conducting research in the Withers Lab at the University of British Columbia. The funding allows me to treat my learning as a job and get excited by my contributions to the lab’s research.

Undergraduate summer researcher, University of British Columbia

Advanced Training Opportunity Program (ATOP) was exceptional.

The ATOP training program was a unique opportunity to develop my writing and management skills. As a postdoctoral fellow, I was familiar with writing scientific publications and supervising undergraduate students, but not with writing a project description nor the sections related to budget or training personnels in a grant proposal. I also never had to go through the process of interviewing a student for the project. The ATOP program offered the perfect conditions to teach senior HQP how project are administered and I feel more prepared for a future career as a Principal Investigator.

Postdoctoral fellow, McGill University

Putting knowledge into practice.

After studying genetics for five years at the undergraduate level, I am finally getting the chance to see the techniques I have learned about in action and to experiment with DNA myself. Gaining experiences like performing genotyping will certainly help prepare me for the career I hope for as a genetic counsellor.

Making direct impact on real-world problems.

Through my summer research experience, I have explored various aspects of research where I actually got the opportunity to apply the skills that I can only learn about in school. Not only this, I was able to use these skills to help make a direct impact on real-world problems. To see families who are affected by the diseases we are studying come to our lab and personally thank us is truly an experience that cannot be put into words. My experience has filled me with inspiration and motivation that would have otherwise not been possible were it not the contributions GlycoNet made.

Every teacher should do this.

I wish that every teacher could have the opportunity to participate in the CMASTE-GlycoNet program for high school teachers, just because you get immersed in real science again.

Practical Professional Development Workshops.

How does one get creative in academic-based social media? The professional development workshop on “Cultivating Your Professional Online Presence” opened my eyes. I have been missing out on a lot of networking opportunities because I didn’t have a professional online presence. With all I learned from the workshop, I updated my LinkedIn profile and am looking into creating other academic platforms to track any publications of interest to my work.

Future-proof my career path.

My research project has focused on chemical syntheses. I make complex carbohydrates and study their structures, but I never see what happens after I make them. I usually just send them to my collaborator for downstream “biological experiments.” But while on exchange at the Whitfield lab, I actually learned to conduct these experiments. It has given me a new perspective, helping me understand the big picture. With experience in synthetic chemistry, and now with molecular biology, I was able to boost my knowledge and apply for a post-doctoral fellowship in neuroscience.

Post-doctoral Fellow, University of Alberta

Internship made possible.

Industry is very different from academia. As an industrial intern, I acquired the necessary tools to transition into industry after I graduate. I also learned that I don’t have to stay in academia to work in research. In fact, from the internship, I found that working in the industry might be better suited for me because it’s faster-paced and more structured.
