This virtual info session on Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions (MSCA) Postdoctoral Fellowships (PF) 2023 call is organised by the National Contact Points (NCPs) for MSCA in Belgium (NCP Federal BENCP-FNRSNCP Flanders) to inform potential applicants and host institutions from both the academic and non-academic sectors (including industry, business and SMEs, …).

The MSCA Postdoctoral Fellowships 2023 call is expected to open on the 12th of April with a deadline on 13 September 2023. Postdoctoral Fellowships support post-doctoral research and careers in all scientific fields. Supported researchers have a PhD and a maximum of 8 years of post-PhD research experience. This limit can be extended for several reasons (e.g. maternity leave, paternity leave, …) Host institutions need to be located in an EU Member State or Horizon Europe Associated Country. The grant amount depends on the number of person-months. The postdoctoral fellowships have a duration between 12 and 36 months (depending on the type).

During this information session the objectives of PFs, call modalities and hands-on information on the application submission and evaluation process will be provided, complemented by the perspectives from a MSCA PF fellow and an expert evaluator.

This info session is completely virtual. Participation to this webinar is free and open to any researcher in any career stage wishing to apply with a Belgian host institution or any staff member of a Belgian host institution (both from the academic and non-academic sectors). Registration is mandatory.

More information on the agenda and the registration form are available on the dedicated webpage

Autoship - a new and durable way of freight transport

Autoship is, as the name suggests, an acronym for autonomous ship. Just like with self-driving cars, the possibilities of an unmanned boat seem endless. It can create more efficient freight transport, around the clock deliveries and these are just a few of the examples. The project has two societal challenges.

At first, De Vlaamse Waterweg was a bit hesitant as their experience with FP7 or Horizon 2020 projects was limited and they had not been very successful up until then. The fact that they were already doing basic research on the topic of autonomous boats, and the administrative help of NCP FLanders helped De Vlaamse waterweg to cross the line and get involved.
