InGA

The Internal Grant Agency continues to attract first-rate postdoctoral fellows

Since 2021, InGA has helped attract nine foreign postdoctoral researchers who enrich research teams with new perspectives, know-how, and international experience. This year, for the first time, four new postdocs were successfully hired from a record number of 316 applicants from around the world.

Veronika Brezani (Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center and Harvard Medical School in Boston) will expand Alemeh Zamani's research group. Marie Šulcová (Stockholm University) will join Dáša Bohačiaková’s team. Irena Koutná’s research group will welcome Seyede Atefe Hosseini (Goethe University in Frankfurt and Mashhad University of Medical Sciences, Iran), and Debopriya Bose from Bose Institute (University of Calcutta) will strengthen Lumír Krejčí’s team. You can learn more about them in the article.

If your research group is missing a talented postdoctoral researcher, try applying for the InGA Postdoc call this fall. We will inform you when the call is announced. More information about the program can be found on the InGA website.
