The TWAS-FAPESP Postdoctoral Fellowship Programme is inviting applications to support researchers from developing countries to undertake postdoctoral research in natural, applied and social sciences at host institutions in the State of São Paulo, Brazil.

The TWAS-FAPESP Postdoctoral Fellowship Programme is a collaborative initiative between the Research Support Foundation of the State of São Paulo (FAPESP) in Brazil and The World Academy of Sciences (TWAS), designed to foster advanced research capacity among scientists from developing countries. The programme enables early-career researchers to undertake postdoctoral research in a wide range of disciplines, including natural, applied, and social sciences, at leading institutions in the State of São Paulo, Brazil.

Fellowships are awarded for up to twelve months and are intended to support research projects that align with ongoing FAPESP-funded grants at host institutions. Applicants must secure a conditional acceptance from a supervisor affiliated with a FAPESP-supported project and meet all eligibility requirements, including holding a PhD obtained within the last seven years and demonstrating proficiency in English.

The application process involves two main stages: submission of an expression of interest by potential supervisors, followed by the submission of a full proposal in collaboration with the selected postdoctoral candidate. Required documents include a research project proposal, academic records, proof of degree, and statements from both the host institution and supervisor.
