Training for cAreer deveLopment in high-radiation ENvironmentTechnologies 
TALENT offers career development for young researchers in the field of instrumentation for radiation detection. The project focuses on piloting new state-of-the-art technologies on the new precision pixel detector ATLAS Insertable B-Layer detector (IBL) and for future precision tracking detectors. The project will strengthen the co-operation between research and multidisciplinary industry in the fields of advanced radiation sensors, fast and low power consumption read-out and data acquisition electronics, new cooling technologies and ultra light mechanical support structures.
