Information day for 2019 Marie Skłodowska-Curie Individual Fellowships in Tartu

The Estonian Research Council and the University of Tartu invite you to info day on Marie Skłodowska-Curie Individual Fellowships in Tartu

On 24 April at 13:00. The info day will be in English and  will take place in the University of Tartu Library, W.Struve Str. 1, Kodavere seminar room.

The info day is targeted at both researchers who wish to apply for the Fellowship themselves, as well as potential supervisors who wish to host post-docs from abroad. Speakers include Kristin Kraav (Estonian Research Council, National contact point for MSCA), Tharaka Doddapaneni (Estonian University of Life Sciences, successful MSCA IF 2018 applicant), Heidi Paju (Ministry of Education and Research, MSCA IF evaluator).

The aim of the Marie Skłodowska-Curie (MSC) Individual Fellowships, funded from the Horizon 2020 programme, is to support the career development of researcher through mobility. Researchers in possession of a PhD can apply for the fellowships to broaden and diversify their competence abroad. In most cases, the so-called mobility criterion applies: applicants must not have resided or worked in the country of the host organisation where they are applying to go for more than 12 months in the last 3 years prior to the call deadline. MSC Individual Fellowships support also reintegration of researchers in Europe after a period of mobility outside Europe, and the return to research after a career break (for example, parental leave). In these cases a more flexible mobility criterion is applied: the duration of stay in the host country must not exceed 3 years in the last 5 years.

The call for applications for the 2019 Marie Skłodowska-Curie Individual Fellowships will open on 11 April, with a deadline on 11 September 2019.
