Well since there's an interested party, I'll report what I found out. Part time is possible for professional or family reasons. If for professional, you have to keep detailed an exact time sheets. I don't know more details about that side because for me it's family reasons. I was referred to this: a...

Hi guys, Does anyone have any experience on how to implement a reduced hours contract for the MSCA? I was just awarded one (yay!), and I want to work less than full time. I know this is possible, but it is unclear to me how the practicalities work. There does not seem to be an option to specify this...

Was this the same in previous years, that people get a twitter-rejection?

No email as yet I'm in CAR, got the email early morning congrats! I guess this means that CAR panel winners are informed and we all others may accept the rejection and proceed to other stuff :( that's absolutely frustrating to wait for so long and not even being properly informed Yeah, 96.4. Still ...

I wonder if this happens when there's two projects with the same/similar acronym.. don't think these are unique are they? Another check...

Thank you for the wishes and the company and for cheering me up in these days. I have just decided to contact Dreamer. I could not survive anymore to this anxiety and to be honest now I am quite relieved and don't care. Let's see if he will reply! cheers if you are drinking! :D :D :D Happy birthday...

I tried to contact Dreamer and DreamerGirl, but my PMs seem to just sit in my outbox and not send (they don't go to my sent box). Has anyone else had this problem? 3rd attempt. First time SoE, second time waitlist, this time is my last I could take it to the team I want to work with in the UK (I th...
