The MathInGreaterParis Fellowship Programme, co-funded by Marie Sklodowska-Curie Actions H2020-MSCA-COFUND-2020 offers 15 fellowships in the framework of the European Horizon 2020 programme “Marie Sklodowska-Curie Co-funding of Regional, National and International Programmes”. This is a 3-year call for applications for 2-year postdoctoral fellowships in Mathematical Sciences and theoretical Computer Science in the “Greater Paris Region" (Ile-de-France in French), in France.
The aim of the COFUND MathInGreaterParis is to put the know-how and efforts of its participants together and to unite and renew the international postdoctoral programmes in Paris Region. Research projects will be hosted in one of the laboratories of MathInGreaterParis network in the Paris Region area:
FSMP network: Fondation Sciences Mathematiques de Paris
FMJH network: Fondation mathématique Jacques Hadamard
Federation Bezout network: Labex Bezout Federation.
The novelty of MathInGreaterParis training is that in addition to a well-established research-oriented training, an innovative training for becoming "ambassador of mathematics" will be provided.
A 3-i secondment will be financially supported: fellows have to spend minimum 10 days (in two years) in a professional immersion in line with their research project in:
- an international secondment: this means a in laboratory out of France and/or
- an Interdisciplinary secondment: this means in a laboratory of a different discipline: biology, chemistry, medicine, etc…and/or
- an Inter-sectorial secondment: this means in a non-academic sector: industry, private company, public non-academic institution, bank etc...
What is offered
Fellows will be employed under the French “Contrat de travail” terms, hence they will benefit from:
- Social and medical security for the applicants and its accompanying family members.
- Maternity/ paternity leaves (with potential contract extension on request), unemployment and retirement rights.
Fellows will receive a financial support for a period of 24 months:

- They will get 150 euros per month as financial support for their 3-i secondment project. This amount, funded by the co-funding partners will be managed by the host organisation and personally appointed to the researcher.

Experienced Researcher: Candidates must have a doctoral degree or an equivalent experience, at the time of their enrolment. More precisely, at the date of their recruitment they must be in possession of a doctoral degree or have at least four years of full-time equivalent research experience. (We specify that: “Full-time equivalent research experience” is measured from the date when the researcher obtained the degree entitling him/her to embark on a doctorate even if a doctorate was never started or envisaged.)
