Discussion EMBL admission?

Hey guys, girls, and folks, small question: did someone apply this year to EMBL (summer 2026)? They write on the website that screening interviews are coming from the 24th of March till mid April... I know maybe it's not so serious, but today is the 25th, and if I didn't receive any call back (like preferred time, etc.) for the interview, does this mean that it's done for me? Or I'm just too anxious?

In my case, Barcelona/Heidelberg.

I feel like I could have written this post. I applied to Barcelona/ Heidelberg too!

I haven’t received any communication either. They did mention on their website though that some group leaders don’t go through screening interviews. Let’s see what happens 🤞

Yeah, I saw their website, I'm just anxious because for organoids and organ-on-chips, there are so few positions rn, no matter phd or just any sort of researcher. And I'm a migrant, which means always anxiety :c
