Events

Marie Curie Researchers × Imperial College London is a hybrid academic exchange bringing together Marie Skłodowska-Curie researchers, Imperial College London scholars, and early-career researchers from across Europe and beyond. Hosted by the Marie Curie Scholars Chinese Association with support from Imperial College London, MCAA UK Chapter, MCAA AI Chapter, and WASTI, the event fosters open dialogue across science, engineering, medicine, sustainability, and human-centred design. Through informal discussions, cross-disciplinary exchange, and campus engagement, the event aims to inspire collaboration, connect global research communities, and explore how innovation can address complex societal challenges.

Marie Curie Meets Finland is the first event in the country-focused Marie Curie series. It features six Marie Curie fellows and researchers from major Finnish universities sharing their study, research, and living experiences in Finland, as well as practical tips for MSCA applications.

Hosted by Dr. Mo Fan from MCAA China Chapter and Jiawei Yang from MCAA Finland Chapter, the event will be held online on November 29 and is supported by the MCAA China Chapter, MCAA Finland Chapter, EURAXESS China, and other partners.
