ORT researchers analyzed funding and scientific careers

On March 6, Proyecto People hosted a workshop to present updated data on funding, projects, and co-authorship, as well as new trends in research evaluation and funding opportunities.

One of the most rewarding aspects was the exchange between early-career and senior researchers (SNI Level 3), who shared their experiences and offered guidance on how to best advance their careers in the field of research.

What is the SNI?

The National System of Researchers ( SNI) is a national initiative that promotes the categorization and provision of incentives for researchers through periodic evaluations, with the aim of strengthening the country's scientific community.

In the SNI, the Level III corresponds to the highest level of consolidation within the category of active researchers, associated with project leadership and the direction of research groups.
