A certificate of doctoral award must be presented before the starting date of the stay.

Applicants must have a written acceptance explaining how the applicants research plan fits with the group activities. A member of the host research group will be responsible for liaison with the applicant.

Applications can be submitted before December 20, 2010 by sending the required information (click here for details) to the CRM at crmcalls@crm.cat. Submissions will be reviewed through the CRM Scientific Advisory Board. A decision will be taken no later than two months after the deadline.

The gross salary will amount to 24,480 euros per year. Successful applicants will be provided with office space and working facilities at the Centre, as well as assistance in finding accommodation if necessary. Under normal circumstances they are expected to start their stay at the CRM in September 2011. Delayed arrivals will be considered under request, provided that the starting date does not surpass February 2012.
