Ikerbasque launches the Research Fellows 2022 call offering 20 positions for postdoctoral researchers

• The call for applications will remain open until the 15th March.

Ikerbasque – the Basque Foundation for Science, has launched in 2022 a new call offering 20 positions for postdoctoral researchers. These positions are financed by the Basque Government, the European Commission and the host institution where the researcher will develop his/her research: therefore, the acceptance letter of the host institution is mandatory.

These five year Fellowships are directed to promising young researchers; they are intended to offer a track towards a PI role and independent research. The selected Fellows should be able to acquire the necessary skills for a research leader role. Ikerbasque is committed to offer a long-term career to the research community: Fellows in their 5th year can be assessed for a permanent position.

The applicants must have their PhD completed between 1/1/2011 and 31/12/2019.

Applications from women are especially welcomed. The eligibility period will be extended under special circumstances such as maternity.
