The International Research Office at UPWr invites you to an informational webinar on MSCA Postdoctoral Fellowships 2023 (call ref. HORIZON-MSCA-2023-PF-01-01). The webinar will be held on May 11, 2023, at 3:00 - 5:00 pm (CET).
How to plan the writing process for a good proposal, how to step into the role of the Supervisor, and why are these grants worth seeking at all? We will discuss all this and more with Ms. Anaelle Gerard, a colleague from the grants office at the University of Angers and Dr. Susanne Commend, a researcher currently implementing an MSCA grant CIE-NET4DISCHILD, under the supervision of Prof. Yves Denechere.
MSCA grants have long been popular with researchers from all over the world. The reason being that funding is obtained for a 2-year project at a European university or a research center, and the host institution is required to offer the fellow an employment contract for the duration of the project.
During the webinar, we will focus on the information, which is essential for those willing to undertake a mobility to a foreign institution. We will also provide information for Supervisors, who are ready to write a proposal together with a foreign researcher.
To take part in the webinar, please send an email to: international.research@upwr.edu.pl. Please write "MSCA PF Webinar" in the title of the email and we will reply to you with a link to the Google Meet event.
