Our actions



Our Fellows

The Agropolis Fondation Fellowship Programme is designed to promote the exchange of knowledge among scientists from around the world. Agropolis Fellows work together with their counterparts and a team of scientists in various research units based in Montpellier. Together, they explore solutions to address plant research issues related to agriculture and sustainable development in the temperate, Mediterranean and tropical regions.
