Ikerbasque - the Basque Foundation for Science, has launched in 2025 a new call offering 15 positions for postdoctoral researchers. These positions are financed by the Basque Government, the European Comission and the host institution where the researcher will develop their 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 01/01/2014 and 31/12/2022.
Applications from women are especially welcomed. The eligibility period will be extended under special circumstances such as maternity.
