@ml In France, if you get a degree from a French university, they reduce the residency requirement to only 2 years, instead of 5. Though that is 2 years of integration into French society, and a French job.
I would assume that could include post-doc if you are getting paid for your post-doc.

@scottcarlson@hachyderm.io Thank you! I didn't know that. I do know they raised the language requirements recently. But I have every intention of learning the language wherever I end up long-term.

@scottcarlson@hachyderm.io @ml@ecoevo.social note though that you're 60, so at the age when you finished your PhD, you might by law not be eligible for a postdoc position any more (not so sure about the French system there, but there's limits on how old a professor can start, for example).
