TENURE TRACK<\/h2>\n
\n\n\n\n\n

Junior Group Leader programme: Tenure Track<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

To identify and incorporate new group leaders, as well as to support young researchers in establishing their own independent research lines, in 2011 IBEC set up a tenure track programme.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Applicants are expected to develop an ambitious project for their future group and to contribute to one or more of IBEC\u2019s core applications areas. Apart from outstanding scientific output, candidates must prove that they are active in the application of competitive proposals as principal investigators. They must also have begun to establish their own research group by attracting and training new talent. Any mobility experience, e.g. a stay in another country\/region will be considered as a valuable contribution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Candidates will be evaluated by the IBEC Scientific Advisory Board (SAB) based on their scientific quality, the feasibility of the proposed scientific approach, the potential impact of their research, the added value to the current IBEC research programme and structure, and their ability to carry out efficient leadership and management.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Desirable competencies and skills are: Leadership; critical judgment in the identification and execution of research activities; strategic vision on the future of the research field; proven record in securing research funding \/ budgets \/ resources; team building and collaboration; excellent communication and networking skills.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Successful candidates will be appointed for an initial 4-year period with possibility of renewal. At the end of the fourth year, the Junior Group Leader will be evaluated by the ISC. A positive evaluation will allow the candidate to become a consolidated Group Leader.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Junior Group Leaders at IBEC are offered a start-up package and provided with suitable laboratory space and access to the state-of-the-art core facilities at IBEC. Moreover, they are assigned a research project manager to support them with the management of their projects and interaction with IBEC administrative staff.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Junior Group Leader positions are advertised on IBEC’s Jobs<\/a> page.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/div>

Junior Group Leader programme: Non-Tenure Track<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

IBEC\u2019s Junior Group Leader programme aims to identify and incorporate new group leaders, as well as to support young researchers in establishing their own independent research lines in a stimulating, interdisciplinary, collaborative and high quality international scientific environment.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Postdoctoral and senior researcher applicants are expected to develop an ambitious project for their future group and to contribute to one or more IBEC\u2019s core applications areas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Candidates will be evaluated by IBEC\u2019s Scientific Advisory Board (SAB) based on their scientific quality, the feasibility of the proposed scientific approach, potential impact of their research, added value to the current IBEC research programme and structure, and their ability to carry out efficient leadership and management.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The successful candidate will be appointed for an initial 4-year period. At the end of the fourth year, the Junior Group Leader will be evaluated by the ISC. A positive evaluation will allow the candidate to extend their appointment for another 4 years.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Junior Group Leaders at IBEC are offered a start-up package and provided with suitable laboratory space, access to the state-of-the-art core facilities at IBEC and access to outstanding predoc students and postdoc researchers. Moreover, they are assigned a research project manager to support them with the management of their projects and interaction with IBEC\u2019s friendly and researcher-oriented administrative staff. Emphasis is given to supporting their participation in competitive calls to start their own research line.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
