I. New Successful Projects

The MSCAfellow7_MUNI project, funded by the OP JAC programme, started in mid-2024. In the following years, 6 postdocs at SCI MUNI will be gradually funded for two-year mobility. These postdocs scored more than 70 points in the evaluation of proposals for the MSCA-Postdoctoral Fellowship 2023 call, but did not achieve funding from Horizon Europe. The research of these postdocs will now be funded by the OP JAC.

Supported postdocs:
Surbhi Grewal (RECETOX)
Matej Fekete (Dept. of Plasma Physics and Technology)
Lucrezia Ravera (Dept. of Theoretical Physics and Astrophysics)
Anyndia Biswas (Dept. of Mathematics and Statistics)
Lorena Agostini Maia (Dept. of Experimental Biology)
Tomáš Janoš (RECETOX)
