The Spanish National Research Council (Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas-CSIC) is a government agency for basic and applied scientific research. It is the largest public research performing organisation in Spain, with 124 centers.

Rockefeller University invented the modern bioscience institute and has spent the last 124 years perfecting it. Recognized around the world as one of the most highly regarded scientific institutions, Rockefeller draws talent from around the world in pursuit of one mission: to conduct science for the benefit of humanity. The research underway in our labs today will transform medicine tomorrow. A place of both quiet contemplation and intense scientific energy, our unique campus is the backdrop to a culture that values both independence and collaboration. We believe that diversity, equity, and inclusion benefit our mission to advance the best and brightest scientists the world has to offer. Our labs employ the latest technology to answer the toughest questions in their fields, with New York City, a burgeoning hub for biomedical translation, providing a mecca for culture and ideas outside our campus gates. Rockefeller’s culture is built on genuine dedication to promoting scientific discovery and excellence, as evidenced by our unparalleled track record of success: our scientists have won a collective 26 Nobel Prizes, 26 Lasker Awards, and 20 National Medals of Science. Rockefeller’s philosophy of investing in brilliant, innovative individuals extends to our students and postdocs, who collaborate with their mentors and receive the scientific foundation they need to succeed in academia, in industry, and in policy. We are a modern, thriving institution: Over the past 10 years we have invested over $2 billion in new facilities, scientific equipment, faculty recruitment, and research support. To work at Rockefeller is to support groundbreaking science, paving the way towards tomorrow’s discoveries. Success comes from the strength of our community, and we invite you to learn more at www.rockefeller.edu.
