IDEAL PhD is a doctoral fellowship programme led by IMDEA Nanociencia and co-funded by the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions (MSCA) COFUND programmes to attract 12 talented predoctoral researchers in two open calls to undertake a PhD research project in any of the programmes at the Institute:

- P1 Nanotechnology for energy harvesting
- P2 Quantum materials at the nanoscale
- P3 Nanotechnology for healthcare
- P4 Nanomagnetism for Information and Communication Technologies
- P5 Ultrafast phenomena at the nanoscaleP6 Nanotechnology for critical raw materials and sustainability.

The IDEAL PhD programme aims to boost the careers of first stage researchers offering them an innovative, truly interdisciplinary and intersectoral training in nanoscience and nanotechnology, in connection with international and industrial partners.

**Application deadline: 23 August 2024 (17:00 CET)**

A full list of PhD projects is published on the IDEAL PhD website. Applicants are able to freely choose a PhD project and associated supervisor that fits their individual research interest.
