MSCA call (HORIZON-MSCA-2027-COFUND-02): HORIZON TMA MSCA Cofund Postdoctoral programme

## Summary

MSCA Choose Europe for Science 2027 is a Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions Cofund call that supports postdoctoral fellowship programmes hosting individual researchers at a single institution in Europe. It falls under the HORIZON-MSCA-2027-COFUND-02 call, part of the HORIZON TMA MSCA Cofund Postdoctoral scheme, and does not require a multi-partner consortium. Applications are submitted by a researcher together with a host institution rather than by a project consortium.

## Who should apply

- Postdoctoral researchers seeking a fellowship hosted at a European institution
- Individual applicants pairing with a single host institution rather than a consortium
- Researchers eligible under the MSCA Cofund Postdoctoral programme rules
- Host institutions running or joining an MSCA Cofund postdoctoral programme

## Key dates

- Deadline: 6 April 2027
- Submitted by individual researcher plus host institution, no consortium required

## Tips for applicants

- Confirm the specific national or institutional Cofund programme you are applying through, since HORIZON-MSCA-2027-COFUND-02 covers multiple host-run schemes.
- Align your application with the host institution's own Cofund postdoctoral programme requirements, which may add criteria beyond the MSCA call.
- Since no consortium is needed, focus the proposal on the fit between your research plan and the single host institution's environment.
