University of Amsterdam: Eight European Commission Marie Curie Fellowships for research at the UvA

Eight talented academics will receive Marie Sklodowska-Curie Individual Fellowships from the European Commission to conduct research at the UvA, it has been announced.


The fellowships are awarded from the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions, which are part of the European Union’s research and innovation programme Horizon Europe. The fellowships are meant to stimulate the cross-border mobility of experienced researchers both inside and outside the European Union. The fellowships are personal grants. All eight UvA researchers have been awarded European Fellowships, which last for two years and for most laureates amount to a budget of around €185,000. Overall, the European Commission will award 1,156 fellowships in this round (8,356 applications were submitted), amounting to €242 million in total.
