Talk Academia

Oh I really hope this isn’t true either! From my job at my country’s national funding agency I know that anything that means relying on reviewers to deliver on time (or anyone outside the agency for that matter) can take absolutely bloody ages! :shock: :( Guys do not jump to conclusions. I had a tal...

Do you mean to say that having British nationality will mean UK govt pays? I’m a Brit (not for much longer prob) and have lived on mainland Europe since childhood... Host country would be Sweden. My understanding is that in a No Deal Brexit, folks like myself who have a UK host will be up shit creek...

Would they really be waiting for the Brexit deal vote? I just read it has been postponed to 25 February!

I just got word back from someone I have been in contact with in the commission, and, I quote:

'Unfortunately, we cannot disclose the date because last minute changes might happen. The results should be out by the end of the working week'.

I am sure they are not answering the phone because otherwise they would get no work done :lol: Also: they have announced a specific date, namely 12 Feb. So far I see no indication that they are anything less than highly professional in their communication tbh. If that's true then: 1) Why they don't ...

Lol, maybe they recognize the number

I really can’t concentrate on work today!

Brussels doesn't pick the phone anymore!

I emailed the host county NCP on Wednesday hoping to get a better idea of announcement date, but haven’t heard a peep back yet
