Call for 40 Experienced Researchers – USAL4EXCELLENCE
The “University of Salamanca Programme to Foster Research Excellence” (USAL4EXCELLENCE) is an initiative of the University of Salamanca (USAL) funded by the Horizon 2020 Programme under MSCA COFUND actions and cofunded by the Junta de Castilla y León, which aims to recruit 40 experienced researchers. Taking a ‘bottom-up’ approach, the overall objective of fellowships will be to recognise the brightest ideas and bring brilliant minds together.
USAL4EXCELLENCE will provide fellows with training and networking opportunities that will enhance their career development and leadership potential.
- Fellows will be hosted at USAL and they will have the opportunity and freedom to choose their destination for two secondments. Thus, fellows will have a mandatory period at USAL during the first 24 months (except for a voluntary secondment which should be started at least after 6 months at USAL), and a mandatory secondment during the last 6 months of the fellowship, as indicated below.
- Fellows will be encouraged to undertake a stay in a Partner Organization for a period of up-to 6 months, which could be split into shorter periods (neither of them may be shorter than 1 month).
Descriptors in CLPU:
- Diagnostic tools, therapies and public health.
- Particle and nuclear physics.
- Atomic and molecular physics, optics.
First call is already open for applications until 15th February 2022.
