The Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions (MCSA) Choose Europe for Science pilot scheme aims to increase the attractiveness of European research careers by addressing precarity and offering excellent working conditions, turning the current challenge of brain drain in the R&I sector into brain gain.

Choose Europe for Science will support projects in which academic and non-academic organisations recruit postdoctoral researchers with a vision to employment beyond the project period. The main novelty of the initiative is that organisations will also be selected based on their offers of longer-term professional perspectives.

The total budget for this call is €22.5 million. A beneficiary can receive a maximum of €3.5 million for this call.
