What I am looking for in a Rising Star

As fellow FRSA alumnus, I know very well the possibilities and the expectations of hosting a Rising Star. I am looking forward to host myself an outstanding young researcher (PhD defense +/- 2 years), to establish a joint small project aiming at a shared publication. Afterwards, the candidate can be potentially recruited in my livMaTs projects.
