Despre eveniment
This celebration event is designed to highlight both the strategic relevance and the human dimension of MSCA. The event will be held online, in Romanian, and will offer participants an overview of the main novelties and updates in MSCA 2026–2027, insights into Romania’s participation in MSCA, and first-hand perspectives from those who have built part of their research careers through the programme.
Through presentations, discussion, testimonials, and audience interaction, the event aims to inform, inspire, and encourage wider engagement with MSCA opportunities across the Romanian research community.
Who should attend
The event is open to researchers at different career stages, from doctoral candidates to postdoctoral and more experienced researchers, as well as to representatives of universities, research institutes, and other organisations interested in MSCA funding opportunities.
Whether you are exploring MSCA for the first time or already have experience with the programme, this event will provide useful information, practical perspectives, and an opportunity to connect with the wider MSCA community in Romania.
Draft agenda:
Participants will also have the opportunity to indicate, by 15 April, their interest in actively contributing to two interactive sessions included in the agenda.
The roundtable discussion, “From Romania to Europe and beyond – Building research careers with MSCA”, is addressed to MSCA alumni, supervisors and beneficiaries willing to share reflections on research careers, mobility, and the broader impact of MSCA.
The session “My MSCA experience in 1 minute” is open to PhD and postdoctoral researchers involved in recent MSCA projects who would like to share a short personal testimony.
Interested participants may indicate their availability in the registration form. Expressions of interest will be reviewed by the organisers, who will make the final selection of contributors.
