Marie Skłodowska-Curie Postdoctoral Fellowships

The Marie Skłodowska-Curie Postdoctoral Fellowships (PF) aim to enhance the career development and skills acquisition of promising postdoctoral researchers through advanced training, international and intersectoral mobility. The LMU will host a webinar on the MSCA PF on 18 May 2026.

Katrin Schaarschmidt, consultant of the National Contact Point for Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions, will briefly introduce the Postdoctoral Fellowships and will explain how to prepare a successful application. In addition, a successful grantee of the MSCA PF call 2025, will share their experience with applicants.

The info session is intended for:

To be eligible, postdoctoral researchers must have successfully defended their doctoral thesis and a maximum research experience of 8 years since doctoral graduation and must comply with the MSCA mobility rule: i.e. they should not have resided/worked in Germany for more than 12 months in the last 3 years before 9 September 2026.
  • Eligible postdoctoral researchers from abroad aiming at applying with the LMU as Host Institution and an LMU professor as Supervisor, as long as they comply with the aforementioned eligibility rules.
  • Eligible postdoctoral researchers currently working at LMU and aiming at pursuing their academic career at the LMU, as long as they still comply with the aforementioned eligibility rules.
  • Eligible postdoctoral researchers currently working at LMU and aiming at pursuing their academic career in a different institution outside of Germany, as long as they comply with the aforementioned eligibility rules: i.e. they must have successfully defended their doctoral thesis and a maximum research experience of 8 years since doctoral graduation and have not resided/worked in the country of the Host Institution for more than 12 months in the last 3 years before 9 September 2026.
