In an effort to become scientifically competitive with the rest of Europe, Portugal has dedicated significant financial and administrative resources to improving its research infrastructure over the past 2 decades—a movement that helped breed five times the number of life science PhDs and boost publication rates 17-fold. In the past 2 years, Portugal’s Foundation for Science and Technology has turned its attention to its postdocs, luring back those who went abroad with the promise of state-of-the-art research facilities and public funding of about 1,000 postdoc fellowships each year.
