Application procedure:

The LOGOS Research Group encourages qualified candidates, working in areas within the remit of the group, to send their expression of interest either directly to an individual senior researcher of the group as a potential sponsor, or else to the group’s coordinator at logos.barcelona@gmail.com to solicit support. LOGOS specifically and emphatically encourages female researchers, and researchers belonging to other under-represented groups, who would like to apply for a Beatriu de Pinós fellowship, to seize this opportunity.

Please note (i) that the LOGOS Research Group itself is neither the grant-awarding body nor a department or a research centre, nor is it the only group based at a Catalan institution that might incorporate successful applicants; (ii) that support from individual members of the group is not automatic but subject to their explicit agreement in the light of the candidate’s academic profile.

There is an open call for scholarships for young scholars from Latin America, Africa and the Middle East who wish to spend a short stay at one of the universities of the Coimbra group to which the University of Barcelona belongs.
