MSCA Postdoctoral Fellowships scheme
The MSCA Postdoctoral Fellowships scheme helps researchers advance their careers and gain new skills through training and international, intersectoral and international mobility.
Postdoctoral Fellowships are aimed at researchers who are already in possession of a doctoral degree, and at the call deadline have a maximum of 8 years of full-time equivalent research experience. Career breaks, time spent outside/not on research-related activities, part-time working, time spent outside of the EU (for reintegrating researchers), and refugee status will be taken into consideration when calculating this eligibility criterion.
