Marie Skłodowska Curie actions (MSCA) fund bottom-up research, with the objective of supporting the career development and training of researchers.
There is a focus on innovation skills, and the key aspect of all Marie Skłodowska Curie actions is transnational and cross-sector mobility.
The Marie Skłodowska Curie programme provides grants at all stages of researchers' careers, from PhD candidates to highly experienced researchers. Click to read about the four main types of Marie Skłodowska Curie actions.
