Marie Curie Individual Fellowships
The People Specific Programme of the Seventh Framework Programme (FP7) aims to strengthen, quantitatively and qualitatively, the human potential in research and technology in Europe by stimulating people to take up research as a profession, encouraging European researchers to stay in Europe and attracting to Europe the best researchers from across the world. The programme is implemented through a coherent set of Marie Curie Actions.
Marie Curie Individual Fellowships support experienced researchers in complementing existing skills or acquiring new skills and competencies. The aim is to support researchers in attaining or strengthening a leading independent position. The action may also assist researchers to resume a research career after a break. Funding is provided for advanced training and career development. This may include the acquisition of new and/or complementary skills, and transnational mobility.
