R2 boosting your postdoctoral career in Prehistory at IPHES
IPHES-CERCA develops the complete research lifecycle in Prehistory and Human Evolution studies by encompassing fieldwork, data processing and analysis, publications, postgraduate training, public science and cultural heritage enhancement. The complete research lifecycle in Prehistory and Human Evolution has been already completed by IPHES-CERCA in a number of sites (Sierra de Atapuerca, Barranc de la Boella, Abric Romaní, Camp dels Ninots). These processes are providing, at different scales, evidences of scientific, social and economic impact, as examples of how Prehistory and Human Evolution Studies can be lead to Public-Private Partnerships for Tourism Master Plans or intersectorial innovation and development projects. The aim of R2STAIR programme is to hire eight (8) researchers who defended their doctoral thesis less than 4 years ago (considering the deadline of the call), corresponding to R2 (Recognised Researcher) profile according to the European Framework for Research Careers. The general objectives are: 1.- IPHES’ attraction of the the best researchers boosting the development of their research careers, offering them outstanding training and research opportunities in the field of Prehistory and Human Evolution. 2.- Boost the career prospective of 8 junior R2 fellows, providing them a professional experience in a whole research lifecycle in Prehistory and Human Evolution studies, as is usually carry out by the Beneficiary.

Project objective
R2STAIR will boost the career prospective of R2STAIR will boost the career perspectives of 8 junior R2 fellows (PhD holders who are not yet fully independent) by training their skills throughout the research life cycle in Prehistory and Human Evolution studies (from fieldwork to a societal impact through heritage enhancement). To this end, this program will complement IPHES’ experience on interdisciplinary research and intersectoral collaboration with about thirty international Partner Organisations (Research Institutes, Universities, Museums and City Councils), willing to host specialised secondments. Furthermore, short and medium stays, with specific first-hand training in ongoing processes of heritagisation promoted by IPHES, will be facilitated around archeopaleontological sites such as Sierra de Atapuerca, Barranc de la Boella or Camp dels Ninots. These processes are providing, at different scales, evidences of political and socioeconomical impact of IPHES’ activities, asexamples of how Prehistory and Human Evolution Studies can be lead to Public-Private-Partnerships, Tourism Master Plans or a Regional RIS3 project. This will be done without prejudice of choice alternative entities according to the 'Individualdriven mobility principle'.IPHES has a strong research profile in Prehistory and Human Evolution through a concentration of multidisciplinary approaches to the archaeological record, having an extended presence in different scientific communities. For instance, between 2014 and 2018 IPHES has published 464 papers in 87 journals with Impact Factor at 22 different WOS Subject categories, reflecting the broad spectrum of the research carried out.As a result, fellows will benefit from the IPHES’ experience and will also contribute to improve the European Research Area as one of the most attractive environments to grow and progress as a researcher, boosting its international visibility and further increasing the quality of research and innovation developed.
