Call for Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions Postdoctoral Fellowship (MSCA PF) Applicants<br/>
<br/>
To enhance the attractiveness of the state of Brandenburg, Germany, for international researchers, the universities in Brandenburg offer the Marie Curie Coaching (MC²) Programme for the first time. This programme supports researchers interested in applying for the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions Postdoctoral Fellowship (MSCA PF) and being hosted by a university or research institute in Brandenburg, Germany. While the MC² mentorship is conducted remotely, the subsequent MSCA PF is an on-site research position. For more details, please visit<br/>
