Disclaimer
Disclaimer on the number of researchers and PhD candidates funded through MSCA.
The number of funded researchers is tentative based on the budget available for the calls launched on a given year. The final number of funded researchers will be known only once all projects have ended.
For most actions in MCSA (with the exception of PF), the project selection results are known in year N+1 (N being the call year) while the researchers are mainly recruited or selected for exchange in year N+2.
Work Programme (WP) call years are not always the years of the call deadline.
The data provided is provisional, especially with respect to the current programming period (2021-2027).
