Are you looking for the ideal lab in which to develop your skills and scientific ambition? At IBEC, a world-leading institute in biotechnology and nanomedicine, you’ll have the chance to carry out stimulating, interdisciplinary research in a high-quality environment. You’ll be joining a young and growing organisation that has a scientific staff of more than 200 researchers and expert technicians, with more than 30% coming from abroad.

In addition to your scientific work, whether you’re heading a research group or doing your PhD, you’ll be able to benefit from our weekly seminars by international speakers, or to learn from your colleagues at the PhD Discussions series of talks and skills sessions. In addition, IBEC holds an annual symposium on a different scientific theme, and regular social and networking events are organized within the institute or by its host campus, the Parc Científic de Barcelona.

We encourage applications from international candidates from many different disciplines and at all career levels. IBEC’s HR department and its contacts with the university housing service and other resources will help make your move to Barcelona as smooth as possible.
