Navigating Horizon Europe Funding Opportunities & Support Offers

Many postdocs know about ERC grants and MSCA programs – but Horizon Europe offers far more. This lunch talk with Cornelia Schneider will introduce the broader Horizon Europe funding landscape, focusing on Pillar II and its thematic clusters. Participants will learn about current calls, funding options, and how to build strong consortia and networks. It will outline personalized support available through the EU Bureau of the BMFTR and the National Contact Points (NCP).
