Summary

iBB is dedicated to tackling the UN Sustainable Development Goals. Among these, Good health and well-being, and in particular the need to understand neurodegenerative diseases and develop affordable therapies and effective drugs for them. These are two major challenges aligned with iBB goals.The ideal candidate is expected to establish a nationally and internationally recognized independent research program (evidenced by publications and capture of external funding) that increases the impact and visibility of iBB and IST-ID in the area. She/he should strengthen the scientific area of Molecular Biophysics, emphasizing Single Molecule Microscopy, including single-molecule Förster resonance energy transfer (smFRET) and fluorescence correlation spectroscopy (FCS), with a focus on understanding the molecular mechanisms associated to protein disorder/aggregation in neurodegenerative diseases. The researcher will contribute to attract doctoral students and postdocs and thus enhance the BSIRG research team, increasing its critical mass, and securing funding at both national and international levels to contribute to the group´s competitiveness in the international domain of neurodegenerative diseases.

Beneficiaries

Within the scope of the Recovery and Resilience Plan, two types of beneficiaries are responsible for carrying out the projects and using the funding provided. Due to their similar role, the reference to these two types of beneficiaries has been simplified and unified under the term "Beneficiary".
The two types are::
  • Direct Beneficiaries are those whose funding and projects to implement are part of the Recovery and Resilience Plan that has been negotiated and approved by the European Union;
  • Final Beneficiaries are those whose funding and projects to implement are approved following a selection process through Calls for Applications.

Call for applications

As part of the Call for Applications, submissions are requested to select the projects and final beneficiaries to whom funding will be awarded. Specific selection criteria are defined for each call, which must be reflected in the applications submitted and assessed.

The project is appraised on the basis of its compliance with the selection criteria laid down in the calls for applications, and a final score may be awarded, where applicable.

Final evaluation score

9,2
Important note

The components for calculating the assessment score can be found in the selection criteria document mentioned below.

Selection criteria

Procurement

Beneficiaries representing public entities implement their project by signing one or more contracts with suppliers for goods or services through public procurement procedures.

To ensure and provide the utmost transparency in all these contracts, a list of the contracts that were signed under this project is available here, along with the information available on the Base.Gov platform. Please note that, according to the legislation in force at the time the contract was signed, some exceptions do not require the publication of the contracts signed on this platform, and, therefore, no information is available in such cases.
