Research stays at other Helmholtz Centers – that's what the Helmholtz Internal Mobility Program offers for doctoral researchers and postdocs. This exchange opens up new perspectives and brings fresh ideas back to the centers.
Exchange Program for Data Science Talents
The Helmholtz Internal Mobility Program is a Helmholtz-wide exchange program for doctoral and post-doctoral researchers whose research has a strong connection to (applied) information or data sciences.
HIDA financially supports up to three-month long research stays at another Helmholtz Center. Our goal is to spark collaborations between the centers and build an interdisciplinary community of data scientists.

Experience as a HIDA trainee
Numerous exchanges have already taken place across the centres via the trainee network. The trainees have looked beyond the boundaries of their research areas or deepened knowledge in their field - with benefits for their scientific projects and their network.
Learn more about the experiences that successful trainees have had with the exchange here:
The Benefits
- For the participants: Gain interdisciplinary experience. Apply your data science skills at another center and bridge domains, learn new skills and expand your research portfolio.
- For Host Centers: Benefit from fresh ideas and methods from other domains or your own, build collaborations with data science talent nationwide.
- For Home Centers: Train your data science talent in new methods and skills from other research domains or your own, build collaborations with other centers.
I would definitely recommend participation in the HIDA Trainee Network to other scientists, especially if they want to include external expertise in their work, find new collaborations and gain new ideas.
