An Open Call for PhD positions at the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona (UAB) is now available, with opportunities to join the group by Autumn 2026. The positions are part of a European Co-FUND programme, which offers much more competitive salary conditions than standard PhD contracts in Spain. The deadline for applicants is 28th February 2026. 

General information on all available positions can be found here:
