Postdoctoral fellowships to conduct cancer research in Spain
These mobility postdoctoral fellowships, co-financed by the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions COFUND programme of the European Commission, offer a unique opportunity for talented cancer researchers worldwide to carry out their projects in one of the selected host cancer research centres in Spain.
A new era in cancer research
Excellent working conditions and top research centres
Fellows will have a wide choice of entities and multidisciplinary teams in which to carry out the project of their interest. The host organisations are endorsed by the Scientific Foundation of the Spanish Association Against Cancer and report a high number of international collaborations and participation in European and international projects. With their projects, AECC Talent fellows will contribute to improving prevention, early diagnosis, disease monitoring and treatment of cancer patients, which are key intervention areas of the Horizon Europe Cancer Mission
A comprehensive professional development
Secondments and trainings to boost a new generation of cancer researchers
In addition to enjoying an excellent research environment AECC Talent fellows will carry out international, intersectoral and interdisciplinary secondments, that may range from one month to one year, through which they will boost their networking opportunities and expand their interdisciplinarity.
Moreover, AECC Talent will provide a comprehensive training programme to its fellows with yearly sessions that will range from specific courses and seminars on research skills to non-research oriented transferable skills, innovation and leadership courses provided by experts in the corresponding fields.
