Please check the information provided by the European Commission in order to find out if you - formally - are a suitable candidate for the GLOMO action.

No, the MSC action is open to any nationality. However, there are certain requirements regarding your place of residence within the last years.

As described in the European Commission's Guide for Applicants(1.0 MB, 66 pages), the location of the researcher's residence or main activity during the 3 years prior to their recruitment is determining.

Example: UK nationals can be eligible for recruitment at a beneficiary located in the UK if they have resided or carried out their main activity outside of the UK for more than 24 months in the 3 years immediately prior to their recruitment.

Note that the mobility rule applies to the (first) beneficiary where the researcher is recruited, and not to beneficiaries to which the researcher is sent or seconded. It is also only determined at one point in time: that of the fellow's first recruitment in the action.

This might determine which research project you can apply for.
