The appeals procedure has now been concluded, and we are pleased to publish the final results of the BS4S call.

Congratulations to all candidates included on the main list. We look forward to welcoming you to the programme.

Candidates placed on the reserve list may still be offered a position if a candidate from the main list resigns or is unable to take up the fellowship by October 2026. In such cases, candidates from the reserve list will be contacted individually in the order of their ranking.

In the coming days, we will contact the selected candidates regarding organisational matters and the next steps.

Thank you to all applicants for your participation in the call.

We are publishing the results of the call (after interviews) in a table divided into three categories: the main list, the reserve list, and applications that received a negative evaluation (score below 70 points).

In cases of ex aequo scoring, the ranking is determined first by the “Project viability” criterion and, if necessary, subsequently by “Motivation.”

Please note: Due to the appeal procedure and the ongoing ethics assessment, the ranking list remains provisional at this stage. Candidates’ positions may still change depending on the outcome of appeals and the final ethics evaluation. The final ranking list will be announced after the closure of the appeal proceedings (mid-May 2026).
