On Wednesday 5 March, the small hall of the University Hospital of Bellvitge (HUB) hosted a briefing on Sklodowska Marie Curie Actions of Horizon 2020 program of the European Union organized by the TTO IDIBELL.

Aida Diaz, part of the team of European and International Service Projects AGAUR (SPEI-AGAUR) explained the different financing schemes for the researchers of the Bellvitge campus.

The Marie Sklodowska Curie program gives priority to the financing of human capital (research staff) and the exchange of knowledge.

“The Marie Curie Actions are part of Horizon 2020” explained Diaz, “so it is also very important the partnership between academia and other sectors, such as business.” The program funds research staff of any age and nationality.
