Postdoctoral Fellowships in Petroleum Engineering, Computer Vision/Robotics/AI, Production Systems/Ecophysiology, Materials Chemistry, and Science Communication/Innovation
FAPESP postdoctoral opportunities are open in Brazil across several research areas, with a monthly scholarship of R$ 12,570.00, technical reserve, and possible installation assistance according to FAPESP rules.
Open projects include: enhanced oil recovery in carbonates using LS-WAG-CO2 proxy models at the Polytechnic School of the University of São Paulo / EPIC; computer vision, robotics, and artificial intelligence for digital agriculture at Embrapa Digital Agriculture in Campinas; production systems and ecophysiology at ESALQ-USP in Piracicaba; materials chemistry and 2D materials at LNNano/CNPEM in Campinas; and science dynamics, innovation, science diplomacy, and scientific communication in the MultiObs project at the Institute of Geosciences, University of Campinas.
Research keywords include Petroleum Engineering, Computer Science, Robotics, Artificial Intelligence, Agronomy, Plant Science, Materials Chemistry, Materials Science, Science Diplomacy, Scientific Communication, Innovation Economics, Enhanced Oil Recovery, Computer Vision, Ecophysiology, and Nanomaterials.
Eligibility varies by call but generally requires a PhD, relevant research experience, strong publication record, English proficiency, and in some cases a doctorate obtained within the last seven years. Some positions require Python, PyTorch/TensorFlow, Linux, shell tools, R and/or Python, statistical analysis, experimental nanomaterials chemistry, or reservoir simulation and EOR methods.
Deadlines mentioned in the post range from 2026-07-15 to 2026-07-20, depending on the project. Applications are submitted by email to the listed supervisor/PI or through the MultiObs website, with documents such as CV, motivation letter, publication list, transcripts, diplomas, and recommendation letters where requested.
