Conditions of applicability:
According to the rules of the European Commission certain conditions on
the nationality of the researcher, the location of the host research
organization, and the requirement that they move country to take up their
appointment have to be met simultaneously. This includes that researchers
must be nationals of a state other than that of the host organisation.
Moreover, at the start of their fellowship/activity, researchers may not
have resided or carried out their main activity
(work, studies, etc) in the country of their host organisation for more
than 12 months in the 3
years immediately prior to the start date. Short stays such as holidays
are not taken into
account. Appointments are open to nationals from member states and
associated states. A limited number of appointments of third countries can
be accommodated if they are essential to the project. More information can
be found in the work programme of the Marie Curie Programme, section
2.5.3.

Salaries:
The Early Stage Researcher/Experienced Researcher will be paid a salary
that is the one usually given to students/postdocs in the appointing
institute. These amounts thus depend on the place of appointment.
Furthermore, there will be an allowance for travel between the place of
origin and the host institution of the researcher, a mobility allowance to
cover supplementary expenses linked to the family situation of the
researcher, as well as a career exploratory allowance for researcher
selected for stays of at least one year.
