About this position

The International Brain Initiative (IBI) Fellowships in Global Exchange are now open for applications for postdoctoral fellows and early- to mid-career investigators working in the brain sciences. This international fellowship program supports scientific exchange across IBI initiatives, affiliates, and partners, with opportunities spanning neuroscience-related research areas and host institutions around the world.

Fellowships may last 6 to 24 months, and some focused programs may also support shorter formats such as summer workshops. The program is designed to advance collaboration, mobility, and research exchange, with fellows expected to conduct scholarly work with a host institution and produce an outcome such as a publication, policy brief, testimony, or outreach event.

Research areas and keywords: neuroscience, brain science, cognitive neuroscience, neurodevelopment, brain atlas, brain disorders, stem cells, neural circuits, brain-inspired intelligence, mesoscopic brain mapping, and related biomedical research.

Funding is host-program dependent. The IBI notes that support may include travel, lodging, subsistence, research costs, and conference participation. Example host programs listed include a Connected Minds postdoctoral award in Canada with salary, benefits, and research/networking allowance, and several China-based fellowships offering monthly support and in-kind research infrastructure. Some hosts also provide health insurance and office space.

Eligibility highlights: postdoctoral fellows, early-career investigators, and middle-career investigators are eligible; some host programs require an MD or PhD in a relevant field and strong publication records. Candidates may self-nominate or be nominated, and some programs require joint application with the host.

Application window: rolling basis for five years beginning in 2025 through 2030, with individual host programs posting their own deadlines and start dates. Interested applicants should review the host-specific fellowship page and contact the relevant program lead before applying.

Funding details

Full funding including tuition fees and living expenses is available for this position. The scholarship covers all educational costs and provides a monthly stipend.

How to apply

Please submit your application including a cover letter, CV, academic transcripts, and contact information for two references. Applications should be sent via the online portal before the deadline.
