Selection Process

The selection committee will check applications against the following criteria:

• Scientific background and potential as indicated by candidate experience.
• Fit to a research project.
• Evidence of ability to undertake research.
• Evidence of working within groups or teams.
• Impact and benefit of the proposed training to the candidate’s research career.

Gender equality and minority rights will be promoted in the selection process.

Three candidates will be short-listed for each research project and invited to an interview (interviews by video link will be held if candidates are not able to travel).

Interviews will consist of two parts:

1) a short presentation by the candidate followed by questions and answers

2) a competence-based interview.

NEUROSOME is looking for a broad international representation of early stage researchers. The network clearly acknowledges its responsibility for the recruitment of the researchers, their working and living conditions, as stated in the document “The European Charter for Researchers – Code of Conduct for the Recruitment of Researchers”.
