Spanish term or phrase: Estancia Post-Doctoral
Hello,
As part of an about-the-author section of a study, what would be the best AE translation for "Estancia Post-Doctoral" (at the Université Libre de Bruxelles, Spt 96-July 98)?
Post-Doctoral Stay? Post-Doctoral Fellowship?
(And, by the way, post-doctoral or postdoctoral?)

Thank you kindly,
O
