National Contact Points (NCPs) have been set up across Europe by the national governments to provide information and personalized support to H2020 applicants in their native language. The mission of the NCPs is to raise awareness, inform and advise on H2020 funding opportunities as well as to support potential applicants in the preparation, submission, and follow-up of the grant applications.
Applications are available for individual fellowships to support individual researchers at the postdoctoral level and beyond to work on a research project of their own design.
Marie Skodowska-Curie Individual Fellowships (IF) aims to enhance the creative and innovative potential of experienced researchers, wishing to diversify their individual competence in terms of skill acquisition through advanced training, international and intersectoral mobility.
