How to Contact IBAR and Find Staff or Job Openings

Updated

The Institute of Biochemistry of the Romanian Academy (IBAR, biochim.ro) publishes contact and location details, staff listings, and current job openings directly on its website. Use the main menu for "Contact and location" under the Institute section, "Researchers & staff" for people, and "Careers/Jobs" under News & Events for open positions. The site does not publish a general email address or phone number in the material reviewed here, so the contact page is the place to check for current details.

Contacting IBAR and finding the institute

IBAR is a research institute of the Romanian Academy, described on its homepage as a "Center of Excellence in Molecular Life Sciences." Its stated research focus spans molecular and cellular biology, analytical and preparative biochemistry, proteomics, interactomics, and bioinformatics and biocomputing.

To reach the institute:

  1. Go to biochim.ro.
  2. Open the Institute menu.
  3. Select Contact and location for address and contact information.

The same section also links to About the institute (IBAR) and IBAR's history if you need background before writing. The homepage footer lists "Contact" and "Old site" links as additional entry points.

Finding researchers and staff

The site organizes people information under Researchers & staff, with separate pages for Alumni and Administration & Finance. Research is grouped into named teams, each with its own page:

Research group Area
Cell Signaling Signal transduction
Molecular Cell Biology Cellular mechanisms
Viral Glycoproteins Glycoprotein structure and function
Enzymology Enzyme function
Ligand-Receptor Interactions Receptor binding
Structural Bioinformatics & Biocomputing Computational structural biology
Systems Biology of Aging Aging mechanisms
Applied Proteomics and Interactomics Proteomics applications

If you want to contact a specific researcher, start from the relevant group page under Research → Research groups, then check Researchers & staff for the individual. The site does not list direct emails in the reviewed material, so use the contact page for general inquiries and ask for the person by name and group.

Checking job openings and training

Open positions are posted under News & Events → Careers/Jobs, labeled "Latest job offers / open positions" on the homepage. Because listings change, check this page directly rather than relying on cached descriptions.

For early-career researchers, the Education section covers:

  • PhD training
  • Post doctoral studies
  • Specific training courses

These pages describe the institute's training framework. Actual vacancies still appear under Careers/Jobs, so treat the Education pages as background and the jobs page as the live source.

Events and announcements

IBAR publishes Announcements, Internal meetings, and Public events under News & Events. One example from the site: a 15 May 2026, 9:30–14:00 IBAR-ICUB workshop, "Current Topics in Molecular Biosciences," organized with the Research Institute of the University of Bucharest. Past events listed include an EMBL-EBI Workshop in Bioinformatics (April 2018), a COST workshop (2014), and FEBS-related meetings. These pages are useful if you want to meet staff in person or learn about training-style events.

Practical tips

  • No published pricing or login requirements appear in the reviewed material; do not assume any service is free or open without registration.
  • If a contact form or email is not visible, check the Contact and location page again — details may be updated there rather than on the homepage.
  • For collaboration inquiries, name the research group and the researcher you want to reach; the group pages give the clearest context.
  • Job and event pages change often, so verify dates and deadlines on the live site before applying or planning travel.
