MSCA MSCA

The European Commission is looking for success stories and inspirational examples of supervision practice across the Marie Sklodowska-Curie Actions (MSCA) community, to prepare an evidence-based guidance document that will support the existing MSCA guidelines on supervision.

The European Commission has published a survey to gather the examples and stories on the following key themes addressed in the guidelines:

  • Defining supervision
  • Acknowledgement of and support for individual diversity
  • Managing individual supervisor-supervisee relationships (specifically communication and aligning expectations)
  • The benefits and challenges of team supervision (multiple supervisors working together and taking on different roles)
  • Facilitating collective supervision (having cohorts of supervisees together)
  • Institutional support structures (including administration, recognition of supervision quality, community creation etc)
  • Training effective supervisors and supervisees

The survey is targeted to researchers and research support personnel who have been involved in MSCA projects. This includes doctoral and postdoctoral fellows, academic and non-academic supervisors, mentors, coaches, administrative and technical staff.

The deadline to share the experience or best practice example is 2 September 2024.

ANERIS - Next generation tools for sensing and monitoring marine-life

Funded under Horizon Europe (HORIZON-INFRA-2022-TECH-01) and running from 2023 to 2026, the ANERIS project aims to tackle the rapid loss of ocean biodiversity. The project’s main objective is to develop, test and implement the next generation of scientific instrumentation tools and methods for sensing and monitoring marine-life. Another key concept of the project is the introduction of the concept of Operational Marine Biology (OMB) as a biodiversity information system. The project consortium consists of 25 partners from 13 countries. Read more about the project and the contribution of Flemish partner VLIZ in this testimonial.
