Dear researchers,
Although mobility is currently limited, it is necessary to look ahead. If you are a PI who knows
an experienced doctoral candidates (minimum of 4 years experience) or post docs (no age limitations) who would like to come to Finland (any country) and pursue research then this is an excellent opportunity. If you are yourself a post doc who wants to go
abroad from Finland to a research organization anywhere in the world, then this is also for you. This funding can also be applied by a foreign researcher who has worked in Finland for less than 12 months in the last 3 years at the time of the deadline. The
funding period is 1-2 years and has a very good financial scheme.
There will be a remote info session about MSCA fellowships in May that you can join for more information.
Please see below for more info and how to register for the info.
The call is now open and the deadline is 9th of September:
The university is also marketing us abroad. If you would like more information about this, please
see more info here: https://www.oulu.fi/university/msca-if
If you are going to be involved in this call, please contact me as soon as possible.
With best regards,
Emma
