Strengthening researchers’ capacity to face the challenges of a competitive research career, develop resilience and improve well-being.

A research career path may be demanding on a personal as well as intellectual level, particularly for people having to relocate from their home and support networks. ICFO offers this program to help researchers strengthening their capacity to face the different challenges involved in a competitive research career.

ICFO has teamed up with the company OnBalance to design a program responding to our specific needs. The program offers tools to develop resilience and well-being and reinforce healthy habits. It aims to train researchers to:

• Improve their ability to respond to change and uncertainty
• Understand and practice techniques to improve emotional well-being
• Develop healthy habits to minimize or neutralize the consequences of stress, improve well-being, health and effectiveness
