Allocation of MSCA Toppfunding for 2026

MSCA Postdoctoral Fellowships are EU mobility grants aimed at researchers early in their careers. The aim is to facilitate excellent research and mobility. Submissions to this program have been low due to under-funding so to stimulate increased application activity towards the next call deadline in September 2026, UiB has decided to support these proposals by contributing 100.000 NOK per year per MSCA fellow to cover any deficits/unmet costs in connection with awarded individual Marie Curie grants in 2026 and 2027.

Note that UIB will also host a 2-day, digital MSCA Postdoctoral Fellowship Proposal Writing Master Class on May 27-28. More information and registration link can be found here.
