Furthermore, fellows will access a rich training programme, career guidance and academic supervision.

  • The call for applications opens on 15 September 2022.
  • An optional pre-application stage will be available to help candidates find a host research group from 15 September to 06 October 2022, 13:00 CET.
  • The provisional call deadline is in 15 December 2022, 13:00 CET.
  • Positions will start in September 2023

The 4 new members of the Alliance are not eligible as host or co-host for the proposals.
