Mobility continues to be a key requirement. Researchers will receive funding by broadening or deepening their competencies in another country.<\/p>\n<p>For postdocs, the MSCA programme provides fellowships within Europe and in Third Countries (Individual Fellowships, IF):<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>European Fellowships (EF)<\/strong><b>: <\/b>Support experienced researchers (usually postdocs) in further developing their career by financing a research project at a host institution in an EU Member State or Associated Country.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Within the EF there will be both a separate multidisciplinary panel for return\/reintegration and career restart-cases. The former Career Integration Grants (CiG) have thus been promoted to fellowship status.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Global Fellowships (GF)<\/strong><b>: <\/b>Support the international career of researchers by giving them the opportunity to conduct a research project in a host institution located in a Third Country (e.g. USA, Canada, Japan)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The <strong>European Research Council (ERC)<\/strong> supports innovative frontier research in Europe through open competition. The sole criterion for selection is scientific excellence both of the project and of the Principal Investigator (PI). The ERC&#8217;s funding schemes cover all scientific fields across all established disciplinary boundaries. In particular, interdisciplinary or pioneering proposals addressing emerging fields and introducing unconventional (&#8220;high risk &#8211; high gain&#8221;) approaches are encouraged.<\/p>\n<p>We will focus on two of the four funding schemes within the ERC:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Starting Grants:<\/strong> For promising junior scientists of any nationality at the beginning of an independent research career (PhD awarded between 2 and 7 years prior to the publication date of the respective call)<\/li>\n<li><strong>Consolidator Grants:<\/strong> For promising scientists of any nationality who want to consolidate their research career (PhD awarded between 7 and 12 years prior to the publication date of the respective call)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The information session will take place in the <strong>Nieders\u00e4chsische Staats- und Universit\u00e4tsbibliothek G\u00f6ttingen<\/strong> (SUB) on <strong>14.
