O tom, jak GAČR nechce podporovat mladé nezávislé vědce

10 minute read

Published:

Už jste slyšeli, že Grantová agentura ČR (GAČR) nebude od roku 2024 udělovat podpory Junior Star mladým vědcům, kteří jsou tak excelentní, že dosáhli na podporu od vlastních hostitelských institucí? Takže kdo dostane Primus od Univerzity Karlovy, má přinejmenším na tři roky smůlu. Žádejte o Starting grant od Evropské rady pro výzkum (ERC), pokud můžete, nebo se radši přesuňte do zahraničí. Protože tahle země není pro mladé navrátilce nebo (nedej bože) cizince. Čtěte dál, abyste zjistili, jak jsem k tomuto názoru došel.

My grand gap: What I have learnt from my unproductive years

The past three years in Oxford have been very busy for me. I received an award from the Department of Chemistry for managing a research project independently when my superior was on leave. I won Oxford University’s poster prize and was selected to present my research in the British Parliament. I co-authored two publications and two more are on the horizon. I am building a huge apparatus that is 95% based on my ideas. So, I have completely forgotten about the skeleton in my cupboard: three unproductive years at the University of Freiburg.

In summer 2020, I got a message from Charles University in Prague that I have won an institutional support for conducting my research in the field of ultra-cold plasma physics at the Department of Surface and Plasma Physics. The 3 months that followed this news were cruel as I had to decide whether I take the offer or stay in a well-paid job of an optical engineer in the automotive industry.
