Training
For the IMDEA institutes the training phase is crucial to the career of a researcher.
For researchers at the beginning of their career, IMDEA institutes offer them the chance to collaborate with others in the field who have already achieved high global standing. As soon as they join IMDEA they become members of interdisciplinary and international research teams, participating in prestigious conferences and scientific publications and benefiting from contacts with innovative companies and universities all over the world. This enables them to create solid foundations for their future career.
