The ESMAC Early Career Network (ECN) board is delighted to announce their next online webinar. Gaining international experience and creating your own international network is an important step for many of us to grow as/into independent researchers. To this end, some experienced experts will elaborate on how they used the Marie Curie scheme to quick-start their international career.
The webinar is free, but due to the content registration is required.

Details:
Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions (MSCA) are a set of prestigious research grants funded by the European Union, with the aim to support researchers at various stages of their careers, from early-stage researchers to experienced professionals. The MSCA are part of the Horizon 2020 program, the EU’s largest research and innovation program.
But how do you start applying for a MSCA? What difficulties are you faced with during this process? And what do you learn from it? In this webinar, we will hear from three researchers who have navigated the MSCA application process. They will each share their firsthand experiences, challenges faced, and valuable insights gained along the way.
| Speakers | Dr. Janneke Schwaner is a postdoctoral researcher at the Human Movement Biomechanics Research Group at KU Leuven in Belgium. She is currently a MSCA postdoctoral fellowship recipient. Despite initially facing an unsuccessful application, she achieved a perfect score upon reapplication.
Dr. Helga Haberfehlner is a postdoctoral researcher at the Rehabilitation Sciences group at KU Leuven in Belgium. She has been awarded an MSCA Seal of Excellence FWO grant. She achieved this recognition by ranking highly on the reserve list for the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions Postdoctoral Fellowship. Dr James Greig Inglis is a post-doctoral researcher at the Department of Clinical and Experimental Sciences, Università degli Studi di Brescia in Italy. He is a MSCA postdoctoral fellowship recipient. |
