Each ESR will be appointed a primary supervisor, a co-supervisor from the same node, and a mentor from another node.
The role of a mentor is to provide support and guidance for the personal and professional development of ESRs, thus motivating them and contributing to reducing any insecurity in their professional future. The mentor should meet the ESR at one of the network meetings and discuss his/her progress or arrange a skype meeting once a year. The ESR may contact their mentor for advice if such a need arises.
The primary supervisor will lead the project at the host institution and be responsible for planning and regular follow-up of research work, execution of various training courses, and fulfilment of CDP.
The co-supervisor will contribute to the project planning and review process. The co-supervisor also acts to provide experimental and training advice.
The ESR will schedule formal monthly meetings with the primary supervisor to discuss the progress of the project in more depth and to receive direct feedback.
A contact time and feedback sheet for these meetings will be filled in and kept by the fellow and signed by the supervisor for approval. Contact/feedback sheets will be forwarded annually to the Training Board/Manager for review.
Besides the formal meetings, there will be short informal meetings several times per month.
ESR’s progress will also be monitored at weekly group meetings, where postdocs and PhD students will give progress reports followed by a scientific discussion.
ESRs will be in daily contact with postdoctoral fellows or senior engineer staff other than the primary supervisor who will mainly focus on relevant experimental/theory/engineering skill training.
