🔴 Supreme Court • May 2026

Standing in line at the consulate doesn't erase your right to citizenship.

The Italian Supreme Court has confirmed that a consular blockade is legal grounds for legal action.

• Were you unable to schedule an appointment at the consulate?
• Is the process stalled or poorly managed?
• Maternal lineage?
• Incomplete documentation?

See if there is still a solution.

The requirements to compete are:

• Do not have an employment relationship;
• Hold a doctorate or specialization degree (in the case of medical graduates);
• Not have reached the age of 33 by the deadline for registration.

To complete the registration application, the candidate must also attach their CV, identity document and research proposal.

ISS will offer the winners 40 thousand euros gross for each year of research.

Among the possible areas of research, the following stand out:

• Health and environment;
• Drugs;
• Communicable diseases;
• Non-communicable diseases and rare diseases;
• Disease prevention, health promotion and global health;
• Food security and nutrition;
