Review of the MSCA Postdoctoral Fellowships Infoday on March 11
On March 11, 2026, the Mission Europe pour la Recherche (MER) organized an information session for supervisors interested in hosting researchers under the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions (MSCA) Postdoctoral Fellowships program.
The event attracted a great deal of interest from laboratories on the Aix-Marseille site: 40 people registered. Several team leaders were also present, and will be relaying the information to their colleagues, thus broadening the scope of the event.
The session benefited from the intervention of Kheya Sengupta (CNRS, CINAM), MSCA evaluator, who presented the workings of the panels and the evaluation process.
The MER team also presented the program rules, expectations for supervisors and available support tools, including the Media Kit for Supervisors. Participants particularly appreciated the practical advice and answers to their questions.
Next session: webinar "How to prepare a strong MSCA Postdoctoral proposal" on May 20
To continue this support, MER is organizing a webinar entitled "How to prepare a strong MSCA Postdoctoral proposal" on May 20, 2026. This session will be aimed at researchers and supervisors wishing to gain a better understanding of the key elements of a successful MSCA PF application, including project structuring, evaluation criteria and best practices for strengthening the competitiveness of proposals.
