Applications will be considered from Senior Scientists and Mid-Career Scientists, preferably with 10 years' experience in the field of learning neuroscience. IBRO and IBE-UNESCO will consider researchers from all regions of the world.

The fellows will be housed at the IBE-UNESCO headquarters in Geneva, Switzerland, so that they can learn about policy-making in an international context, as well as receive support with policy vocabulary and messages. A separate contract with each fellow will be signed by the fellow and IBE-UNESCO to cover the duration of their IBRO/IBE-UNESCO Science of Learning Fellowship. If travelling is affected by the current Covid-19 pandemic, the possibility of completing the fellowship remotely will be considered.

IBRO and IBE-UNESCO cannot arrange accommodation, visas, insurance, travel or other related logistics. This will be the grantee's responsibility to organise. Each fellow will have their own office, including a computer, desk and Internet access.

Expected results:

• Six written dossiers (max. 5 pages each; 2 per month) to re-articulate neuroscience research in accessible language, with explicit implications for policy and practice.
• Give an IBE lecture on your own research project or on any other topic relevant to neuroscience and education.
• Establish contacts with other IBRO/IBE scholarship holders and IBE staff.
• Discuss possible participation in various UNESCO IBE and IBRO projects (e.g. Curriculum and Learning Handbook, conferences and other events, etc.).
