CITIC, Research Centre for Information and Communication Technologies at the University of A Coruña, invites applications for Postdoctoral Researcher positions within the MSCA-COFUND programme TALENTGAL. 

This is a unique opportunity to develop your own research project with full financial support in a highly international, interdisciplinary, and innovation-driven environment, while benefiting from advanced training and strong career development support.

TALENTGAL Call 1

TALENTGAL, promoted by the Xunta de Galicia, aimsto attract excellent postdoctoral researchers to the 10Research Centres of Excellence of theCIGUS Network (Galicia, Spain). The programme fosters international mobility, advanced training, and career development within three thematic areas: Health & Biomedicine, Science & Life Sciences, and Engineering & Technology.

TALENTGAL Call 1 is open from 20 May 2026 until 23 July 2026.

A total of 20 fully funded MSCA postdoctoral fellowships will be awarded across all participating CIGUS Research Centres. While no fixed allocation of positions is assigned per centre, a minimum of one fellowship per hosting institution will be guaranteed, provided that at least one candidate hosted by the centre achieves a final evaluation score of 70% or higher. The remaining fellowships will be allocated strictly according to the overall ranking of all eligible candidates across the three thematic areas, following an open, transparent, and merit-based selection process in line with MSCA principles.
