[ecrea] Research stay at WZB Berlin - Internet Policy group

The Internet policy project group 
<https://www.wzb.eu/en/research/international-politics-and-law/internet-policy> 
at the WZB Social Science Center Berlin 
<https://www.wzb.eu/en/about-the-wzb> welcomes (doctoral or 
postdoctoral) visiting fellows who study different aspects of Internet 
policy and regulation from a social science perspective and wish to 
visit Germany for a short-term research stay.

In particular, we are looking to support applications for third-party 
funding for longer research periods such as the Individual Fellowships 
of the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions (find the current call below). 
Please feel free to get in touch if you are interested in a research 
stay at our institution or in any other kind of cooperation with our 
group ((julia.pohle /at/ wzb.eu)).

   Best regards
Julia

Call for Individual Fellowships of the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions 
(MSCA) within Horizon 2020 for postdoctoral researchers:

Individual Fellowships allow excellent postdoctoral researchers from 
abroad to come and spend up to 24 months at the WZB. At the time of the 
deadline for submission of proposals, researchers shall not have resided 
or carried out their main activity (work, studies, etc.) in Germany for 
more than 12 months in the 3 years immediately prior to the call 
deadline. Researchers of all nationalities are eligible to apply for an 
Individual Fellowship.

An MSCA grant usually includes:

- up to two years' salary

- a mobility allowance

- research costs (as well as overheads for the host institution).

There are two types of individual fellowship:

*European Fellowships* are particularly attractive to researchers either 
coming to, or moving within, Europe.

Furthermore, they can help to restart research careers after a career 
break (e.g. parental leave), and they can also facilitate the 
reintegration of researchers coming back to Europe.

*Global Fellowships* fund secondments outside Europe for researchers 
based in the EU or associated countries.

There is a mandatory one-year return period, which is not affected by 
the mobility rule.

European and Global Fellowships can also include an optional period of 
secondment of up to 6 months in the private sector in Europe.

The current call can be found on the Participant Portal:
