MCAA Upcoming Events
Dear MCAA members,
See all the MCAA Upcoming Events that will be happening in different parts of the globe:
- Webinar: Mobile Researchers and the Challenge of the Network: How to maintain Professional Connections over Time and Space?
In a fast-paced world, extreme mobility is a norm in researchers' lives. Mobility is deemed beneficial for career development because it widens the professional networks; yet, it also makes them shallow. Our webinar will explore the range of possibilities open to researchers who move back and forth across the Atlantic.

Time: 18.00h - 20.00h CET

Additional information
- Support to H2020 applications
A number of H2020 calls are planned in 2020, which might be interesting to our members, or to non-members, who would like to have MCAA as a partner in their applications. If that is your case, do not wait, please contact the Research Funding Working Group (RFWG) of MCAA @ wg-research-funding@mariecuriealumni.eu before 1 December. Please state clearly in your initial e-mail what contribution you expect from MCAA and what resources, financial or otherwise, will be made available to MCAA within the project. The RFWG has a preference for projects for which at least one MCAA member acts as a stable contact point to the project. Please make sure to identify that person.
Best regards,
On behalf of the MCAA
