MSCA Postdoctoral Fellowships 2025
Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions (MSCA), Horizon Europe
MSCA Postdoctoral Fellowships are open to postdoctoral researchers from all over the world, of any nationality and at any career stage, with a maximum of 8 years of research experience after their PhD.
Fellowships include
- European Postdoctoral Fellowships, open to researchers of any nationality to carry out a personalised project in the European Union (EU) or countries associated to Horizon Europe for up to 24 months
- Global Postdoctoral Fellowships, open to EU and Horizon Europe associated countries nationals or long-term residents wishing to work with organisations in third countries for a period of 12 to 24 months, before returning to Europe for 12 months
The scheme encourages researchers to gain experience beyond academia by giving them the opportunity to request an additional six months at the end of their fellowship to undertake a placement in a non-academic organisation in Europe.
Researchers must develop an application with their prospective supervisor and apply together with their future host organisation based in an EU Member State or Horizon Europe associated country.
Swiss entities can host European Fellowships as beneficiaries and act as the return host in a Global Fellowship.
The call will close on 10 September 2025.
