Information on hosting laboratories

Please note that all YITP applicants should apply for the program by submitting the online form and other required documents directly to the official YITP email address ([email protected]). All the hosting PIs have been informed not to directly respond to an email from a potential candidate (or his/her advisor) and forward the email instead directly to the YITP official email address to prevent any attempt to match-make a particular candidate with a certain PI. Also please note that, although the LOC selection committee will make every effort to respect each candidate’s laboratory of choice during the selection/assigning processes, the committee cannot guarantee all applicants being assigned to their most preferred laboratories. IBRO greatly appreciate applicants understanding and cooperation in advance.
