As of today, Friday, March 20, 2026, the call for applications for the “2026 INUO GRANT PROGRAM FOR RESEARCH STAYS FOR VISITING RESEARCHERS” has been published. This program is aimed at researchers from foreign research institutions interested in conducting a research stay at INUO.
The main features of the call for applications are as follows:
The application must include an invitation to an international research group led by a researcher with at least ten years of postdoctoral experience whose research areas are recognized as leading in their scientific field.
The scientific collaboration will be established with this invited research group, and any member of its research team participating in the proposed work plan—including senior researchers, postdoctoral researchers, or doctoral candidates—may carry out their stay at INUO, provided their profile is suitable for carrying out the planned activities.

-
The principal investigator (PI) of the visiting research group

The staff participating in the collaboration
