CURE HEARTandBRAIN postdoctoral COFUND programme by CNIC

Project description

Postdoctoral programme in cardiovascular research

The Centro Nacional de Investigaciones Cardiovasculares Carlos III (F.S.P.) is a globally recognised institution dedicated to improving cardiovascular health. It generates scientific knowledge, translates it efficiently into clinical applications, and provides comprehensive training to emerging researchers. With support from the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions programme, the CURE HEARTandBRAIN project will establish a postdoctoral fellowship programme designed to develop skills, foster innovation, promote open science practices, and enhance public engagement. The programme will be open to 12 candidates with a PhD and will offer training, international mobility, and opportunities to advance the potential of translational researchers in cardiovascular research and related fields, while effectively communicating research results to the public.

Objective

The CNIC (Spanish Centre for Cardiovascular Research) is a worldwide recognised research centre dedicated to cardiovascular research. CNIC’s mission is to improve cardiovascular health in the society by generating scientific knowledge, efficiently translating that knowledge to the clinic, and providing new researchers with a comprehensive training.
CNIC, awarded with the HR Excellence in Research since 2013, proposes to run a postdoctoral fellowship programme “CURE HEART & BRAIN” that will offer a total of 12 positions in the incoming mobility type for the selected and eligible candidates (holding PhD and compliant with MSCA mobility rules). During the COFUND grant life (5 years) there will be two calls (M2 and M9), each offering 6 fellowships. The Programme will advertise the positions internationally.
The fellows will be able to choose the supervisor at CNIC and to propose research projects in all the research disciplines available at CNIC. The selection of the proposals will be transparent, based on merit and performed by external international peer-reviewers. CURE HEART & BRAIN fellowship programme will be open to excellent researchers of any nationality. The programme will offer training to develop key
transferable skills and competences, foster innovation, entrepreneurship, promote Open Science practices, FAIR data management, and public engagement. The fellows will acquire new skills through advanced training, international, interdisciplinary and inter-sectoral mobility.
CURE HEART & BRAIN includes 24 Associated Partners (12 from private sector) from all over the world and from different sectors, providing translational elements to the programme (secondments, training, supervision). The overall goal of the programme is to enhance the creative and innovative potential of a new generation of translational researchers in cardiovascular research and related areas as well as reach out to society to make the results of the research visible to the citizens.
