2018 Marie Curie Individual Fellowship (H2020-MSCA-IF-2018)

What input, if any, did your proposed research mentor have in your proposal? Did he or she read it, give comments, suggestions etc

Mine was more of a couple Skype convos about the topic. My potential supervisor then went and did some backend with finding people that would want to help with the practical research portion. I quickly wrote up sections (except the institutional details) and sent it to him. He changed some of the objectives based on what the collaborators wanted. I went through and tried to make things make sense again and then we had about two or three back and forths for changes. We also had the local MSCA person look over it who gave some feedback which we tried to take in.

We did this all in a month or so which I don't think made for a great piece of work. I think it would have been better with about 3 months or more. So I don't have high hopes. Some parts I do think were written well...but others were shoved in last minute and I wish I had done better on them.

Hello, every one!

Does somebody know the exact "date"? or is there any cue for the progress in the evaluation?

Kind regards, and wish you have a nice day!

That sounds great in theory but also not feasible what with the quantity of proposals.

My 2 cents i believe it should be two steps and not a sing!e step process with an interview/presentation.that would help understand if the person wrote the app and is capable of responding.

I agree but if it were two steps may be less people would apply. Or they should screen project abstracts before inviting full proposals.Well it is what it is for now till we get to some place when we can initiate change, we have to go with the flow

Reply to the post about outreach etc , people are not calling out the idea of outreach etc BS but the fancy way in which we have to embellish it. Certain keywords are expected etc. And in most cases once one gets the fellowship it is rarely enforced.

In posts from the last year, many of them got this phase exactly on 24/01.

In the portal the date is 12 Feb, but some posts from previous year mentioned 1-2 weeks before the date in the Portal. For this year I cannot make any prediction, just that at some point the results will be out.
