PNPD/CAPES

PPG-ERN participates and supports the Post-Doctorate National Program financed by CAPES (PNPD/CAPES). PNPD is a program by which Post-Doc fellowships are offered to academic graduate programs selected by CAPES. The main objectives of PNPD are to reinforce research groups and research projects developed in Brazilian Graduate Programs. Fellowships are distributed according to Graduate Programs scores in the CAPES quadrennial evaluations, and their contributions to strategic areas. Programs are responsible for selecting and evaluating grantees. In 2017-2020 quadrennial, PPG-ERN obtained three fellowships and we aim to increase this number for the next period.
