The call opened on 12 April 2018, and the final deadline date for applications is 12 September 2018.

How the Fellowship Works
A postdoctoral researcher (fellow) with a minimum of PhD level experience moves to an institution in another country (host), where he or she works with a supervisor to deliver a specific project involving research, innovation, training and networking activities. Both parties must collaborate on the application and the supervisor should offer appropriate supervision and support. Regular meetings between the supervisor and the researcher are essential for the planning and implementation of the research and innovation plan.
Proposals should be built around a plan for training-through-research at the host organisation (Career Development Plan). In addition to research activities and objectives, this should address the researcher's training and career needs, including training on transferable skills, planning for publications and participation in conferences.
