Obvestilo Evropske komisije: Excellent Science study – MSCA-related findings

📢 Iz Evropske komisije smo prejeli naslednje obvestilo: 

We are pleased to inform you that the European Commission has published the Excellent Science external evaluation study, part of the interim evaluation of Horizon Europe.

The study assesses the contribution of Horizon Europe to excellent science, focusing on the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions as well as other parts of Horizon Europe Pillar 1, and feeds into the broader mid-term evaluation of Horizon Europe that is currently ongoing.

The study highlights the crucial contribution of the MSCA in strengthening human capital in research and innovation, boosting research talent and supporting Europe’s competitiveness. 

Amongst the many findings, the study establishes that the bottom-up nature of the MSCA continues to be a key element of their success and that as a highly attractive and competitive programme, the MSCA continue to attract well-networked organisations with a long-standing tradition of scientific excellence. 

The MSCA remain the Horizon Europe programme which most stimulates the mobility of researchers across countries, both within the EU and beyond; while retaining research talent within the European scientific community and facilitating the return of European researchers. Beyond this, the MSCA provide unique career development opportunities and prospects; and foster better recruitment practices and working conditions for researchers across Europe, in addition to creating tangible positive impacts for research organisations, as well as undisputed European added value.

However, the study also shows that under the 2021 and 2022 calls only, an additional 6 billion euros would have been needed to fund all the unsuccessful high-quality proposals received.
