University of Castilla-La Mancha expands research recruitment and academic appointments

The University of Castilla-La Mancha (UCLM) is implementing new strategies to attract high-level scientific talent, specifically targeting researchers receiving Ramón y Cajal grants. To encourage recruitment, the university is offering enhanced conditions, including four-year predoctoral contracts to help researchers build their own teams, improved salaries, and institutional commitment to permanent stabilization following the grant period.

In academic news, Belén Galletero Campos, a professor and Dean of the Faculty of Communication in Cuenca at UCLM, has been appointed as a member of the Open Government Forum. She will serve during the V Open Government Plan (2025-2029), contributing her expertise in journalism and institutional communication to promote transparency, accountability, and citizen participation within the Spanish administration.
