The primary objective of the Research Training Network is to promote training-through-research, especially of young researchers at the pre-doctoral and post-doctoral level. 
Community funding will cover the temporary appointment of young researchers (35 years of age or younger) coming from a country  other than that of the team concerned. The young researchers must be citizen (or resident for the last 5 years) of the European Union or citizen of one of the Associated States i.e. Bulgaria, Cyprus, Czech Rep., Estonia, Hungary, Iceland, Israel, Latvia, Liechtenstein, Lithuania, Norway, Poland, Romania, Slovakia and Slovenia.

The following table illustrates the breakdown of these positions between the teams of the network (The full address of the team can be found in the section About Us). More informations can be obtained clicking the link to the specific research unit.

As mentioned in the Research Workplan, the Network is characterized by a strong degree of multidisciplinarity and will develop  mathematical models at all scales making use of a wide variety of theoretical tools from a range of disciplines (e.g., continuum mechanics, kinetic theory, stochastic processes, system theory, compartmental models, multiphase systems) and developing different mathematical tools to obtain both qualitative and quantitative results. For this reason and for the training objective, usually the applicants are not required to be expert of a particular field or of a particular method. 

However, the following table which indicates the fields of expertise of each team with respect to the mathematical approaches and the different length scales involved in the description of tumour growth, can be helpful to identify the type of research each unit is going to develop.
