Subject: [netsociety] Research stay at WZB Berlin - Internet Policy group

Dear all,

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>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:
