The Marie Skłodowska Curie Postdoctoral Fellowship programme (MSCA-PF) is a highly renowned European funding scheme. It offers talented scientists the unique chance to set up 2-year research and training projects with the support of a supervising team. Besides providing an attractive grant including mobility, family and research allowances, it represents a major opportunity to boost the career of promising researchers.
The submission deadline of proposals to the European Commission is set on the 11th September 2024 and successful research proposals selected for funding may start in May 2025 at the earliest.
2PE – Bretagne initiated an original action towards potential candidates for the MSCA Postdoctoral fellowships (MSCA-PF).
This action aims to increase chances of success for motivated fellows by offering dedicated support from both scientific and technical staff to write an excellent research and training project.
