Beca de estancia de investigación para formación interdisciplinar en neurociencia

Purpose
The Tatiana Foundation, through its International Centre for Neuroscience and Ethics (CINET), announces this call to fund a research stay at a public or private international institution (or, in the case of applicants who are nationals of any Member State of the European Union other than Spain, a Spanish institution) of maximum academic prestige. It is aimed at researchers with a PhD who want to enhance their interdisciplinary training in neuroscience and other fields of study (e.g., human biology, bioethics, psychology, philosophy, physics or history). Theoretical or empirical projects that propose a genuine dialogue between two or more of these disciplines will be considered to improve the understanding of the brain, overcome monodisciplinary paradigms, propose original answers to the mind-brain problem, discuss and anticipate the main ethical challenges of neuroscience, and deal with specific issues generally present in interdisciplinary forums, such as consciousness, subjectivity and free will.

Profile of applicants
The grant will be awarded to persons who have obtained a doctorate, regardless of the date. Interdisciplinary profiles will be especially valued, although applicants who, having trained only in one discipline (for example, neuroscience or philosophy), want to conduct a research stay to deepen their understanding of a complementary field of knowledge (philosophy or neuroscience, in this case) are also eligible.
The call is open to people of any age who are citizens of a Member State of the European Union and who propose to join a Spanish institution (in the case of non-Spanish European applicants) or an institution of another country in the world (in the case of Spanish applicants).
The applicant must have been admitted or made a firm offer to be admitted to a university or research center for the requested period.
