10 Why does mobility matter? Only 4% of researchers change country, but those who do have 40% higher average citation rates C.R. Sugimoto et al. (2017), "Scientists have most impact when they're free to move", Nature Vol.550, Issue 7674 (study tracking 16 million individuals who published papers in the period ) EC study found that MCSA fellows: Produced more - and more highly-cited - publications Enjoyed better employment prospects and contracts Were more successful in applying for ERC grants Achieved professorship titles more frequently European Commission (2014), Marie Curie Researchers and their Long-Term Career Development: A Comparative Study (by Economisti Associati, GfK and ISI Fraunhofer)

14 Quotes of Turkish participants Dr. Osman Gulseven, AGINSURANCE MCA-RG "Thanks to the Marie Curie fellowship, I was able to make a smooth transition to the life after a PhD. It was great to return back to my home country, Turkey, after spending 5 years in the US. During my fellowship, I actively participated in several academic conferences around the globe. The AGINSURANCE project website also proved to be great outlet for project visibility even after the end of fellowship period. I was contacted by the Italian Farmers Union (ASNACODI) and I regularly receive s from all around the world asking help in designing optimal insurance contracts." Prof. Fatma Kalaoglu, Istanbul Technical University, ETexWeld MSCA-RISE "The ETexWeld project leverages collaboration and staff exchange between the industrial and academic sectors to develop innovative e-textile products. The most important benefit of this programme is the mobility to share knowledge between experts from different countries, sectors, and disciplines and then enhance it."

59 Evaluation & Award Criteria Excellence Impact Quality and Efficiency of Implementation Quality and credibility of the research/innovation project; level of novelty, appropriate consideration of inter/multidisciplinary and gender aspects Quality and appropriateness of the training and of the two way transfer of knowledge between the researcher and the host Enhancing the future career prospects of the researcher after the fellowship Quality of the proposed measures to exploit and disseminate the project results Coherence and effectiveness of the work plan, including appropriateness of the allocation of tasks and resources Appropriateness of the management structure and procedures, including risk management Quality of the supervision and of the integration in the team/institution Potential of the researcher to reach or re-enforce professional maturity/independence during the fellowship Quality of the proposed measures to communicate the project activities to different target audiences Appropriateness of the institutional environment (infrastructure) Each criterion will be scored out of 5. Decimal points will be given.

60 Evaluation & Award Criteria

61 Evaluation & Award Criteria A weighed total score of the scores of the three individual criteria will be calculated and converted into a percentage of the maximum score. Excellence Impact Quality and Efficiency of Implementation Weighing 50% 30% 20% Priority in Case of ex-aequo An overall threshold of 70% will be applied to the total weighed score. Proposals under the threshold will be rejected. Prioritization in case of ex-aequo if necessary based on other appropriate characteristics that are * decided by the panel * related to the contribution of the proposal to the European Research Area and/or general objectives mentioned in the Work Programme depends on available budget and call conditions

62 Evaluation Process - Each proposal is read and evaluated by three evaluators in an individual and independent manner (remotely for IF). Each evaluator prepares an individual evaluation report. - The three evaluators discuss (online chat system for IF) to reach a unanimous consensus on the final comments and score, and prepare a consensus report, containing relevant elements from the three individual reports. - The consensus score determines the position on the ranking list. - Applicants receive their evaluation summary report (i.e. a copy of the consensus report) in January. Full details on the process are available in the Guide for Applicants available on the call page

63 Examples of evaluator comments STRENGHTS (1) The state of the art review is clear and well-evidenced. It shows convincingly the need for the project research and justifies well the choice of the project objectives. The objectives are precisely specified and ambitiously novel, the work plan of actions is logical and carefully thought through. The methodology is clearly presented, suitable for the objectives of the project, and appropriate controls are included to ensure the significance of the results. The researcher's training needs match the project's goals and are coherent with the researcher's career plans. The proposal makes clear how and when training and technical integration will take place. 63

64 Examples of evaluator comments STRENGHTS (2) The two way transfer of knowledge between the researcher and the host is well-argued and documented. This action includes collaborative work, inter-sectoral knowledge transfer, training on complementary skills and more. Host lab experience in integrating researchers is clearly presented, additionally a list of measures aiming to facilitate the researcher integration in the team/host institution is included in the proposal. The quality of the training is high including relevant aspects to give the researcher a good support. The proposed training is well presented. It is appropriate and aligned with the objectives of the action. There are several types of training discussed. The researcher s capacity to reach or re-enforce a position of professional maturity/independence, including several grants awarded, exceptional abilities to learn and master new technical and non-technical skills are very well documented. 64

65 Examples of evaluator comments WEAKNESSES (1) The proposed action has a limited scope and an insufficiently ambitious set of objectives; it is not clear to which extent the proposed project will lead to significant improvements beyond the state-of-the art compared to other approaches. Originality and innovative aspects of the project are insufficiently justified. The state-of-the-art of the research proposal and the research gap/problem to be addressed are not clearly presented. The research lacks clarity and focus on the specific research and training objectives. The proposed methodology is not adequately described and it is unclear how the hypotheses described in the proposal would be tested. The proposal's interdisciplinarity is not presented in a convincing way. It is not particularly clear from the proposal how the different disciplinary perspectives would be combined in a coherent manner. 65

66 Examples of evaluator comments WEAKNESSES (2) The presentation of hosting arrangements lacks clarity regarding the integration of researcher within the team, especially the essential aspects of integration at the host institution, the integration within different areas of expertise and disciplines, and the international networking opportunities. The proposal does not clearly demonstrate that the research capacity of the researcher is adequate regarding the scope of planned activities of the research. Overall, there is no evidence that the proposed project would open up the best career possibilities for the researcher. The proposal does not make a convincing case that the researcher will be able to move toward professional maturity and independence. Furthermore, the achievements and the track record of the researcher are not properly highlighted with regard to the applicant s level of experience. 66

67 Take-home messages The Guides for Applicants is a must-read! Consult the MSCA Work Programme and the guide for evaluators Be as concrete and clear as possible Be attentive to the details and address all criteria and sub-criteria Think about the 'triple I' approach (International-Intersectoral- Interdisciplinary) Excellence is about your research, but also training, and improving your career prospects; take your career in your own hands Do not despair if you do not succeed. After all, you are playing in the Champions league and there is always a second chance National Contact Points (NCPs) can offer support and advice with applications ncpmobility@tubitak.gov.tr (Tugba Arslan) and 67
