EU-LIFE, @coimbragroup.bsky.social, @yerunnetwork.bsky.social & many EU research organisations urge EU to keep #MSCA 's bottom-up approach.
MSCA’s success lies in its openness to all fields & topics. Thematic restrictions would stifle innovation & limit researchers' opportunities.

Målet er å overbevise politikerne om å investere mer i forskning og innovasjon - slik våre naboland gjør.
