Marie S. Curie Postdoctoral Fellowships offers grants up to two years, to promote mobility and career development to researchers who want to work with an independent research project of their choice in another country. It is also an excellent opportunity for researchers at UiO who want to bring international, younger researchers to UiO to work on a projects of their mutual design. The funding covers most of the salary for the mobile researcher as well as funding to administer and run the project.
The MSCA IF 2021 call is expected to open in April and to have a deadline in September 2021.
UiO is giving a short information meeting for potential supervisors of MSCA Postdoctoral candidates on March 16th, 2021. The seminar will give you information about
- the Postdoctoral Fellowship instruments
- what kind of projects are relevant
- what does it take to a supervisor
- how can this funding scheme be used for strategic network building
The seminar is held in cooperation with Aya van den Kroonenberg from Yellow Research, who has long experience with MSCA and proposal consultation.
The seminar is relevant for UiO researchers who want to find out more about Marie S. Curie Postdoctoral Fellowships and supervising a fellow, and for research administrators working with MSCA support. There will be time to ask questions to the presenter.
Mark that the seminar is primarily meant for potential supervisors of incoming fellows. Researchers at UiO who plan to apply for an Postdoctoral Fellowship themselves as a fellow should contact the host institution abroad for application support.
Please consult your local research advisers regarding further application support for incoming candidates.
