Postdoc and PhD fellowships will be allocated in a staged way, in order to best cover the 5-year timespan of the project, on the basis of the needs of the three scientific work packages and by focusing on specific, essential deliverables.
The management board issues regular calls for projects, then makes a selection. Then, a strict quality process is used in the recruitment of PhD students and postdocs. It follows the CNRS charter (charter ​|in french ​|in english, ​| DR11 flyer for recruiter in french) which has the HRS4R European label. It relies on experienced researchers as members of the selection committees. It ensures scientific excellence and internationalization.

In 2021, the selected 3-year PhD position is:

• Study of the Quark-Gluon Plasma with the ALICE experiment at LHC : measurement of correlations between a hard probe and recoiling hadrons (WP1, Gustavo Conesa Balbastre et Julien Faivre, LPSC). Laureate: TBF

and the selected 2-year post-doctoral positions are:
