The Institute of Photonic Sciences (ICFO) was conceived as a place where highly motivated and dedicated researchers would have the resources, both in terms of advanced equipment and human capital, to engage in research at the very highest international level. At the core of ICFO life is the drive for deeper scientific understanding which can only be gained by dedication, hard work, asking questions and experimenting with new concepts and ideas. ICFO’s scientific impact factor is high and the ambition to publish original findings is strong. Fellowships are awarded for research projects at the forefront of science and technology. Research lines at ICFO include but are not limited to: biomedical optics and biophotonics, nanoscopy and super-resolution imaging, nanotechnology and nanophotonics, nonlinear optics and atom optics, quantum optics and quantum information, atto-science and ultra fast physics, optical sensing and optoelectronics, green technologies and photovoltaics, graphene physics and nanomaterials, single-molecule physics, ultra cold quantum matter physics and advanced laser technology.
The ICFOnest+ International Postdoctoral Program, partially supported by the Marie Curie Actions for Co-funding of Regional, National, and International Programmes (COFUND) of the European Commission, the Spanish Ministry of Economy and Competitiveness (MINECO), as well as by Fundacio Privada Cellex, aims at providing high-level training and support for outstanding international researchers in the early stages of their careers. ICFO will provide cutting edge facilities as well as a stimulating, international and interdisciplinary environment to help Fellows become successful future research leaders. Fellowships are available to postdoctoral research programme.
ICFO offers up to 25 Incoming postdoctoral fellowships of 24 month duration to competitive international postdoctoral researchers, with ambitious research projects at the forefront of science and technology. ICFOnest+ postdoctoral researchers will work within an existing ICFO research group. Remuneration and economic conditions are aligned with standard European Marie Curie programs in the range of EUR 40,000 (USD 55,000).
Applications will be collated and reviewed every 3 months, with the current deadline June 30, 2015, and the upcoming deadline September 30, 2015.
