MSCA@UNIPR BOOTCAMP 2026

The 4th edition of the MSCA@UNIPR Bootcamp consists of 3 days of high-quality training dedicated to post-doc researchers who wish to apply for the next MSCA Postdoctoral Fellowships (MSCA-PF) 2026 call, having the University of Parma as Host Organisation.

Up to 25 motivated and talented researchers will be selected to participate to the Bootcamp in 26-28 May in Parma and will be provided with intensive training and coaching on how to develop successful project proposals for the MSCA-PF 2026 call. The selected applicants will receive a reimbursement fee up to a maximum of 1.500 euros for researchers coming to Parma from European countries, and up to 2.000 euros for researchers coming from non-European countries, in order to cover Bootcamp-related costs (i.e., travel/accommodation/subsistence).

To participate to the MSCA@UNIPR BOOTCAMP 2026, researchers must be supported by a faculty member of the University of Parma who will act as Scientific Supervisor. Call documentation, eligibility conditions for candidates, application form and detailed information are available at the dedicated webpage. Deadline for applications is 31st January 2026.

After the Bootcamp, participants will be committed to apply for the MSCA-PF 2026 (HORIZON-MSCA-2026-PF-01-01) call by submitting a final project proposal by the call deadline, in September 2026 (the official deadline will be published by the European Commission in the following months).
