European Funding Opportunities for Postdocs – European Research Council (ERC) and Marie Skłodowska Curie Postdoctoral Fellowships (MSCA-PF) (GAIN26)
Horizon Europe is the EU’s current Framework Programme for Research and Innovation with a budget of €95.5 billion. It offers a broad range of funding opportunities for researchers returning to Europe. Highly attractive schemes—such as European Research Council (ERC) grants and the Marie Skłodowska‑Curie Postdoctoral Fellowships—are open to postdocs across all disciplines. This workshop provides an overview of major funding instruments, explains application procedures, and offers practical guidance on how to prepare a competitive proposal. In an interactive lecture or panel discussion, an expert and/or a current grantee will share experiences, discuss key success factors, and highlight services for internationally mobile researchers. The workshop is designed for researchers interested in funding opportunities in Germany and Europe and in learning more about academic career pathways. Research managers and multipliers are also warmly invited.
