The following eligibility rules apply for participation in a Marie Skłodowska Curie Innovative Training Network:
1) Research experience: Applicants for the ESR PhD positions should be in the first 4 years (full-time equivalent) of their research career and not yet have been awarded a doctorate. This 4-year period is measured from the date of obtaining the degree which would formally entitle to embark on a doctorate.
2) Mobility requirement: Applicants should not have resided or performed their main activity (work, studies, etc.) in the country of the host institution for more than 12 months in the 3-year period immediately prior to the start date of the PhD research.
In addition, local regulations of the host countries may apply.
