This pilot initiative is part of the €500 million Choose Europe: advance your research career in the EU plan for the period 2025-2027. Organisations applying for funding through ‘Choose Europe for Science’ will not only host postdoctoral researchers, but also offer them longer term professional perspectives.
Since their creation in 1996, Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions (MSCA) have been the Union’s hallmark programme for doctoral and postdoctoral education.
‘Choose Europe for Science’ was formally launched by President Ursula von der Leyen at the Sorbonne in May this year. President von der Leyen said: “ I am convinced that science remains the fuel of progress and growth for our societies. This is why Europe will always choose science. And it is why we want the best and brightest to Choose Europe”.
The programme supports at least three postdoctoral researchers per project for up to five years, with the MSCA providing funding for the initial two or three years, and host institutions continuing employment for the remaining two years.
