On behalf of Philip Hofmann Dear all, this is just a brief reminder about the Marie Sklodowska Curie Master Class initiative and the information meeting next week (on the 2.2.), as in the email below. Best regards, Philip -------------------------------------------- Dear all, Science & Technology has initiated a new programme, Marie Skłodowska Curie Master Class, with the intention to increase the success rate for applications for Marie Curie - Individual Fellowships (post-doctoral fellowship). The program comprises of a 3-day workshop in May 2016, organized by the research Support Office at AU. During the workshop the applicants will start writing the application, get introduced to Aarhus University and have time to develop the research project in collaboration with the future supervisor. The program is supported by funds from Aarhus University Research Foundation, and it has been suggested that around 20 external candidates will be invited (some applicants may already reside in Aarhus). All group leaders are strongly encouraged to search their networks for possible applicants.

Bjørk Hammer and I will then pre-evaluate the applications and submit the qualified to the steering group at S&T.
